Do not wait the time will never be 'just right.' Start where you stand, and work with whatever tools you may have at your command, and better tools will be found as you go along.

Be true to the game, because the game will be true to you. If you try to shortcut the game, then the game will shortcut you. If you put forth the effort, good things will be bestowed upon you. That's truly about the game, and in some ways that's about life too.

Jimmy Smits

Freedom is the will to be responsible to ourselves

Friedrich Nietzsche

Even after all this time, the sun never says to the earth, 'You owe me.' Look what happens with a love like that. It lights the whole sky.

The care of human life and happiness and not their destruction is the first and only legitimate object of good government.

Thomas Jefferson
