a New Philosophy

I have a new philosophy. I'm only going to dread one day at a time. Charlie Brown in "Peanuts"

The Key to Failure

I don't know the key to success, but the key to failure is trying to please everybody.
Bill Cosby

Even when

I believe in the sun when it's not shining, I believe in love even when I feel it not, I believe in God even when he is silent.
Irish Saying

I believe because..

I believe in Christianity as I believe that the Sun has risen, not only because I see it, but because by it I see everything else.
C.S. Lewis

Luck

I am a great believer in luck. The harder I work the more I seem to have of it.
Thomas Jefferson

Humor sneaks in

Humor can get in under the door while seriousness is still fumbling at the handle.
GK Chesterson

No Waiting

How wonderful it is that nobody need wait a single moment before starting to improve the world.
Anne Frank

Talents Unused

Hide not your talents, they for use were made. What's a sun-dial in the shade?
Benjamin Franklin

Your Mission

Here is the test to find whether your mission on earth is finished. If you're alive, it isn't.
Richard Bach

The Busy Man

He not busy being born is busy dying. Bob Dylan

Open Minds

Having an open mind is nothing; the object of opening the mind, as the opening the mouth, is to shut it again on something solid.
GK Chesterton

The Unexpected Visitor

Happiness often sneaks in through a door you didn't know you left open. John Barrymore

Success

He has achieved success who has lived well, laughed often, and loved much; who has enjoyed the trust of pure women, the respect of intelligent men and the love of little children; who has filled his niche and accomplished his task; who has left the world better than he found it whether by an improved poppy, a perfect poem or a rescued soul; who has never lacked appreciation of Earth's beauty or failed to express it; who has always looked for the best in others and given them the best he had; whose life was an inspiration; whose memory a benediction.
