Time is the most valuable thing on earth: time to think, time to act, time to extend our fraternal relations, time to become better men, time to become better women, time to become better and more independent citizens.

The American doctrinaire is the converse of the American demagogue, and, in this way, is scarcely less injurious to the public. The first deals in poetry, the last in cant. He is as much a visionary on one side, as the extreme theoretical democrat is a visionary on the other.

James Fenimore Cooper

Nobody, as long as he moves about among the chaotic currents of life, is without trouble.

Carl Jung

Watch your thoughts; they become words. Watch your words; they become actions. Watch your actions; they become habits. Watch your habits; they become character. Watch your character; it becomes your destiny.

If God gave the soul his whole creation she would not be filled thereby but only with himself.

Meister Eckhart

Poetry is its own medium it's very different than writing prose. Poetry can talk in an imagistic sense, it has particular ways of catching an environment.

Story Musgrave

I moved on with my life but I still have a big commitment to Terri. I made her a promise.

Michael Schiavo

If I find in myself a desire which no experience in this world can satisfy, the most probable explanation is that I was made for another world.

C.S. Lewis

Motivation is like food for the brain. You cannot get enough in one sitting. It needs continual and regular top up s.

Peter Davies

America's strength is not our diversity our strength is our ability to unite people of different backgrounds around common principles. A common language is necessary to reach that goal.

Ernest Istook

Everything yields to diligence

Thomas Jefferson

The one constant through all the years has been baseball. America has rolled by like an army of steamrollers. It's been erased like a blackboard, rebuilt, and erased again. But baseball has marked the time. This field, this game, is a part of our past. It reminds us of all that once was good, and what could be again. Oh people will come, Ray. People will most definitely come.

W.P. Kinsella, James Earl Jones
