'If tyranny and oppression come to this land, it will be in the guise of fighting a foreign enemy.'

James Madison

Love is the only force capable of transforming an enemy into friend.
~ Martin Luther King, Jr. ~

'In the summer I have this friend who I am closest to, and sometimes, in the winter, I long to call her up and say, come here and live with me, in this cold place. But we are summer friends. There is a rule it seems, that summer friends don't get together in the wintertime. Now, sitting here, waiting for her, I realize that I have never seen her in a winter coat, and for some reason that makes me sadder than anything else in the world.'

Jacqueline Woodson

Don't go around saying the world owes you a living; the world owes you nothing; it was here first.

Bill McGlashen

“It is a mistake to look too far ahead. Only one link in the chain of destiny can be handled at a time.”
