Who's General Failure and why's he reading my disk?

Anon.

Continuing a Lenten series on prayer: Prayer is co-operation with God. It is the purest exercise of the faculties God has given us - an exercise that links these faculties with the Maker to work out the intentions He had in mind in their creation.

E. Stanley Jones

Luck was a joke. Even good luck was just bad luck with its hair combed.

Stephen King

And the attitude of faith is the very opposite of clinging to belief, of holding on.

Alan Watts

We who have lived before railways were made belong to another world. It was only yesterday, but what a gulf between now and then! Then was the old world. Stage-coaches, more or less swift, riding-horses, pack-horses, highwaymen, knights in armor, Norman invaders, Roman legions, Druids, Ancient Britons painted blue, and so forth -- all these belong to the old period. But your railroad starts the new era, and we of a certain age belong to the new time and the old one. We who lived before railways, and survive out of the ancient world, are like Father Noah and his family out of the Ark.

William Makepeace Thackeray

Leadership is about being a servant first.

Allen West

If you follow reason far enough it always leads to conclusions that are contrary to reason.

Pablo Neruda

Give light, and the darkness will disappear of itself.
