Work hard, earn a great living, get whatever you want out of life, have all the stuff you want. But there should be a ceiling on it-enough is enough!

Whenever the devil harasses you, seek the company of men or drink more, or joke and talk nonsense, or do some other merry thing. Sometimes we must drink more, sport, recreate ourselves, and even sin a little to spite the devil, so that we leave him no place for troubling our consciences with trifles. We are conquered if we try too conscientiously not to sin at all. So when the devil says to you: do not drink, answer him: I will drink, and right freely, just because you tell me not to.

Martin Luther King Jr.

When you have that window of opportunity called a crisis, move as quickly as you can, get as much done as you can. There's a momentum for change that's very compelling.

Anne M. Mulcahy

Candor and generosity, unless tempered by due moderation, leads to ruin.

Tacitus

If you want to be successful, you must either have a chance or take one.

I love my fellow creatures -- I do all the good I can -- yet everybody says I'm such a disagreeable man!

W. S. Gilbert

To me there is no more tragic sight than the average missionary. We have given so much, yet not the one thing that counts; we aspire so high, and fall so low; we suffer so much, but so seldom with Christ; we have done so much and so little will remain; we have known Christ in part, and have so effectively barricaded our hearts against His mighty love, which surely He must yearn to give His disciples above all people.

Amy Wilson-Carmichael

Man is a gregarious animal, and much more so in his mind than in his body. He may like to go alone for a walk, but he hates to stand alone in his opinions.

George Santayana

A wise system of education will at last teach us how little man yet knows, how much he has still to learn.

John Lubbock

My mom used to make everything. She had a great garden and composted and made everything from scratch - peanut butter, bread, jelly, everything. I don't know how she did it because all those things take time and love and labour. I only do half the stuff she does - but there's still time.

Julia Roberts

Life is not complex. We are complex. Life is simple, and the simple thing is the right thing.

Oscar Wilde

Being competent means the ability to control and operate the things in the environment and the environment itself.

L. Ron Hubbard

Whenever you hear a man speak of his love for his country, it is a sign that he expects to be paid for it.
