I want to stand as close to the edge as I can without going over. Out on the edge you see all kinds of things you can't see from the center.

Advice is judged by results, not by intention.

Marcus Tullius Cicero

My elder brothers were all put apprentices to different trades. I was put to the grammar-school at eight years of age, my father intending to devote me, as the tithe of his sons, to the service of the Church.

Benjamin Franklin

Winning isn't everything, but playing and competing and striving and going through things can be a lot of fun and really important. As long as you're doing it in a way that's healthy, sports can be an incredible opportunity.

Andrew Shue

What is all our histories, but God showing himself, shaking and trampling on everything that he has not planted.

Oliver Cromwell

We're seeing how the videos translate to the live shows and how the technology is really reaching kids.

Willie Aames

It is not necessary to hope in order to undertake, nor to succeed in order to persevere.

Charles The Bold

Left to themselves, things tend to go from bad to worse. Murphy's First Corollary If you tell the boss you were late for work because you had a flat tire, the next morning you will have a flat tire.

George Edward Woodberry

It is not the situation that makes the man, but the man who makes the situation.

Frederick William Robertson

Ceremony leads her bigots forth, prepared to fight for shadows of no worth. While truths, on which eternal things depend, can hardly find a single friend.

William Cowper

If you want to get elected, shake hands with 25, 000 people between and November 7.

Harry S Truman

I went to the woods because I wished to live deliberately, to front only the essential facts of life, and see if I could not learn what it had to teach, and not, when I came to die, discover that I had not lived. I did not wish to live what was not life... I wanted to live so sturdily and so Spartan-like as to put to rout all that was not life... to drive life into a corner to know it by experience and be able to give an account of it in my next excursion.

Henry David Thoreau

It is difficult to steer a parked car, so get moving.
