The way people in democracies think of the government as something different from themselves is a real handicap. And, of course, sometimes the government confirms their opinion. ~Lewis Mumford

Be courageous. I have seen many depressions in business. Always America has emerged from these stronger and more prosperous. Be brave as your fathers before you. Have faith! Go forward! ~ Thomas A. Edison
I asked a buddy not long ago what he thought was the greatest problem facing society today, ignorance or apathy. He replied 'I don't know and I don't care.'
If you think you can do a thing or think you can't do a thing, you're right. ~ Henry Ford

My daughter in third year University Lit program won an award this week! I have always loved her closing;
so did the pilgrims pass
from straw to stone, to sombreros
to looms, to agriculture
and here I carry in my breast the scar
of loving and knowing you
And when I close my eyes at night
I hear the threadbare music
of your streets
and I fall asleep as if adrift
Here is another one I have come up with,~~~ One should not judge the character of a man so much by how he deals with others , but rather by how he deals with himself and GOD, because those are the only two he can not escape from~~~
