Don't be afraid, for I am with you. Don't be discouraged, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you. I will hold you up with my victorious right hand.Isaiah 41:10

"We sleep safe in our beds because rough men stand ready in the night to visit violence on those who would do us harm"

If you're not living on the edge, you're taking up too much space.

" You Bastard!" " Yes Sir. In my case an accident of birth; but you Sir, you're a self made man". The Professionals

Knowledge is knowing that a tomato is a fruit. Wisdom is not using it in fruit salad.

Live your life so that the family parrot can be sold to the town gossip.

Nobody cares how much you know , until they know how much you care.

Those who beat their swords into ploughshares, will plough for those who did not.
