It is the best of times because we still live in the greatest nation on earth. It is the best of years because we have the freedom to speak our minds.--- Paul Weyrich
All tyranny needs to gain a foothold is for people of good conscience to remain silent.--- Thomas Jefferson
I do not believe in a fate that will fall on us no matter what we do. I do believe in a fate that will fall on us if we do nothing. So, with all the creative energy at our command, let us begin an era of national renewal. Let us renew our determination, our courage, and our strength. And let us renew our faith and our hope. We have every right to dream heroic dreams. Those who say that we're in a time when there are no heroes, they just don't know where to look.--- Ronald Reagan, emphasis mine
Love suffers long and is kind; love does not envy; love does not parade itself, is not puffed up; does not behave rudely, does not seek its own, is not provoked, thinks no evil; does not rejoice in iniquity, but rejoices in the truth; bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.
Love never fails. But whether there are prophecies, they will fail; whether there are tongues, they will cease; whether there is knowledge, it will vanish away. For we know in part and we prophesy in part. But when that which is perfect has come, then that which is in part will be done away.
When I was a child, I spoke as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child; but when I became a man, I put away childish things. For now we see in a mirror, dimly, but then face to face. Now I know in part, but then I shall know just as I also am known.
And now abide faith, hope, love, these three; but the greatest of these is love.--- Paul of Tarsus in I Corinthians 13:4-13
The most terrible poverty is loneliness and the feeling of being unloved.--- Mother Teresa
In times like these, it helps to recall that there have always been times like these.--- Paul Harvey
Personally, I'm always ready to learn, although I do not always like being taught.--- Winston Churchill
All great change begins at the dinner table.--- Ronald Reagan
Be faithful in small things because it is in them that your strength lies.--- Mother Teresa
Fame is a vapor, popularity an accident, and riches take wings. Only one thing endures and that is character.--- Horace Greeley
There's no reason to be the richest man in the cemetery. You can't do any business from there.--- Colonel Sanders
Joy is a net of love by which you can catch souls.--- Mother Teresa
There can be no freedom without security.--- Wilhelm von Humboldt
The Moving Finger writes, and having writ
Moves on, nor all thy Piety nor Wit
Shall lure it back to cancel half a line
Nor all thy Tears wash out a Word of it.
---Quatrain LI of the Rubaiyat of Omar Khayyam
There are no traffic jams along the extra mile.--- Roger Staubach
"Courage is contagious. When a brave man takes a stand, the spines of others are often stiffened."--- Billy Graham
For lo, the winter is past, the rain is over and gone; the flowers appear on the earth; the time of the singing of birds is come, and the voice of the turtle is heard in our land.--- Song of Solomon 2:11-12 (KJV)
"Talent is God given; be humble. Fame is man given; be thankful. Conceit is self given; be careful." -- John Wooden (1910-2010)
"Old anchormen, you see, don't fade away; they just keep coming back for more. And that's the way it is..." -- Walter Cronkite (1916-2009)
I know in my heart that man is good. That what is right will always eventually triumph. And there's purpose and worth to each and every life.--- Ronald Reagan
I love these mountains and I love these people. I think that is the theme song of my life. [1]---Bill Gorman (1924-2010), mayor of Hazard, Kentucky from 1978-2010.
Don't give up...don't ever give up. -- Jim Valvano
Imagine a world in which every single person on the planet is given free access to the sum of all human knowledge. That's what we're doing.-- Jimmy Wales
If these United States could be called a body, Kentucky can be called its heart.-- Jesse Stuart
We make a living by what we get but we make a life by what we give.-- Ronald Reagan
Your time is limited, so don't waste it living someone else's life. Don't be trapped by dogma — which is living with the results of other people's thinking. Don't let the noise of others' opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary.-- Steve Jobs
