Wherever the hope of glory lives, hopelessness passes away.

When we take our eyes off the whirl of day-to-day activity and concentrate on honoring Him and following in His way, we find a consistent peace that carries us through both plenty and poverty.

Charles Stanley

Yiddish Proverb

When you're young, you look at television and think, there's a conspiracy. The networks have conspired to dumb us down. But when you get a little older, you realize that's not true. The networks are in business to give people exactly what they want.

Steve Jobs

By common consent gray hairs are a crown of glory; the only object of respect that can never excite envy.

George Bancroft

Nothing is more revolting than the majority; for it consists of few vigorous predecessors, of knaves who accommodate themselves, of weak people who assimilate themselves, and the mass that toddles after them without knowing in the least what it wants

Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

Niccolo Machiavelli

It is clear that all verbal structures with meaning are verbal imitations of that elusive psychological and physiological process known as thought, a process stumbling through emotional entanglements, sudden irrational convictions, involuntary gleams of insight, rationalized prejudices, and blocks of panic and inertia, finally to reach a completely incommunicable intuition.

Northrop Frye

You are that vast thing that you see far, far off with great telescopes.

Alan Watts

I hate politics, hate deals, and deal-making, hate meeting with attorneys and agents.

Kathie Lee Gifford
