Thus times do shift,
each thing his turn does hold;
New things succeed,
as former things grow old.

-- Robert Herrick, Hesperides: Ceremonies for Christmas Eve, 1648

Minx · 10-09-2003, 06:19 AM

Life has no other discipline to impose, if we would but realize it, than to accept life unquestioningly. Everything we shut our eyes to, everything we run away from, everything we deny, denigrate or despise, serves to defeat us in the end. What seems nasty, painful, evil, can become a source of beauty, joy and strength, if faced with an open mind. Every moment is a golden one for him who has the vision to recognize it as such.

~ Henry Miller

Minx · 10-10-2003, 07:53 AM

The price of success is hard work, dedication to the job at hand, and the determination that whether we win or lose, we have applied the best of ourselves to the task at hand.

~ Vince Lombardi

The only thing that stands between a man and what he wants from life is often merely the will to try it and the faith to believe that it is possible.

Learn to wish

-Epictetus

TaiModan · 10-13-2003, 02:55 PM

Allow the President to invade a neighboring nation, whenever he shall deem it necessary to repel an invasion, and you allow him to do so, whenever he may choose to say he deems it necessary for such a purpose -- and you allow him to make war at pleasure. If today, he should choose to say he thinks it necessary to invade Canada, to prevent the British from invading us, how could you stop him? You may say to him, 'I see no probability of the British invading us' but he will say to you, 'Be silent; I see it, if you don't.'" -

- Abraham Lincoln
