Quotations Update
W. C. Fields
I never vote for anyone I always vote against.
Dave Tyson Gentry
True friendship comes when silence between two people is comfortable.
Cornelius Stam
We are living in a day of self-seeking and irresponsibility, even in Christian circles. Few indeed are the Christian believers who have truly laid their all on the altar for Christ. Few are the spiritual leaders who truly put God FIRST . Rather they think first, albeit subconsciously, of their positions, popularity, salaries and the success of the organizations over which they preside. While professing strong allegiance to God and His Word, they are nevertheless careful not to emphasize those passages from the Word which might ruffle feathers or rock the boat, as we say. In spite of their professed fidelity to God's Word and will, their first objective is actually to keep their organizations running smoothly and pleasantly so that they may continue to grow in numbers. This has become a way of life in Christendom, but in this matter too we should 'search the Scriptures daily,' to determine whether these things have God's approval, for however good and right a thing may seem, if it is at variance with the Word, rightly divided, it is contrary to the will of God and therefore wrong.
Anon.
No one is listening until you make a mistake.
Russ Zandbergen
All dimensions are critical dimensions, otherwise why are they there?
Latin Proverb
Live your own life, for you will die your own death.
Eric Hoffer
In a time of drastic change, it is the learners who inherit the future. The learned find themselves equipped to live in a world which no longer exists.
Theodore Ruskin
The highest reward for a man's toil is not what he gets for it but what he becomes by it.
Nathan Hale
I regret that I have but one life to give for my country.
Sophocles
Who feels no ills, should, therefore, fear them; and when fortune smiles, be doubly cautious, lest destruction come remorseless on him, and he fall unpitied.
Socrates
I decided that it was not wisdom that enabled poets to write their poetry, but a kind of instinct or inspiration, such as you find in seers and prophets who deliver all their sublime messages without knowing in the least what they mean.
Edmund Burke
Nobody made a greater mistake than he who did nothing because he could only do a little.
