Cicero
The man who commands efficiently must have obeyed others in the past, and the man who obeys dutifully is worthy of being some day a commander.
Michael Dorris
If the day starts before you do, you never catch up. You spend all your time running after what you should have already done, and no matter how much you hurry, you never finish the race in a tie. The day wins.
Heather Whitestone
…the most handicapped person in the world is a negative thinker.
Irish Proverb
Think before you speak, and look before you leap.
Roald Dahl
Television rots the senses in the head!
It kills imagination dead!
It clogs and clutters up the mind!
It makes a child so dull and blind
He can no longer understand
A fantasy, a fairyland!
His brain becomes as soft as cheese!
His powers of thinking rust and freeze!
He cannot think – he only sees!
Japanese Proverb
Better than a thousand days of diligent study is one day with a great teacher.
Laura Ingalls Wilder
The Little House books are stories of long ago. The way we live and your schools are much different now, so many changes have made living and learning easier. But the real things haven’t changed. It is still best to be honest and truthful; to make the most of what we have; to be happy
Laura Ingalls Wilder
Remember, it is not the things you have that make you happy. It is the love and kindness and helping each other and just plain being good.
Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
Lives of great men all remind us
We can make our lives sublime
And departing, leave behind us
Footprints on the sands of time.
James Rollins
Books are keys that open many doors.
