WALLS FOR THE WIND 
AND A ROOF FOR THE RAIN,
AND DRINK BESIDE THE FIRE
LAUGHTER TO CHEER YOU
AND THOSE YOU LOVE NEAR YOU, 
AND ALL THAT YOUR HEART MAY DESIRE.

YOU DON’T HAVE TO BURN BOOKS TO DESTROY A CULTURE.
JUST GET PEOPLE TO STOP READING THEM.   RAY BRADBURY

                          SCIENCE is not just a body of knowledge, it’s a way of thinking. It’s a way of skeptically interrogating the universe with a fine understanding of human fallibility.                         CARL SAGAN

IF WOMEN RAN EVERY COUNTRY IN THE WORLD THERE WOULD BE a general improvement in living standards & outcomes. women aren’t perfect but are “indisputably better” than men.    BARACK OBAMA

         ANYONE WHO STOPS LEARNING IS OLD whether at 20 or 80. Anyone who keeps learning stays young. The greatest thing in life is to keep your mind young.                              

                                 THE WORLD WAS BUILT TO DEVELOP CHARACTER & we must learn that setbacks & grieves which we endure help us in our marching onward.                      HENRY FORD

ARIELLE FORD 1952—-“Hot Chocolate for the Mystical Soul”                                

THE UNIVERSAL LAW OF ATTRACTION states that we draw to us those people, events and circumstances that match our inner state of being. In other words we attract experiences that are consistent with our beliefs. If we believe that there is plenty of love in the world and we are worthy of giving and receiving that love, we will attract a different quality of relationships than someone who believes in scarcity or feels unworthy of happiness. 

ACCEPTANCE & ITS COUNTERPART UNDERSTAANDING are crucial to achieving relationship harmony. It is sacred love — the highest form of love & like most things worth striving for in life it requires patience, commitmemt, personal responsibility & practice. 

                               WORK TOWARDS CO-CREATIVE SOLUTIONS. 

           WHEN DEEP DOWN in the core of your being you believe that your soulmate exists, there is no limit to the ways he or she can enter your life.

WILLIAM  E. GLADSTONE 1809-1898—PRIME MINISTER GREAT BRITAIN.

           NOTHING THAT IS MORALLY WRONG CAN BE POLITICALLY RIGHT.

       WE LOOK FORWARD to the time when the power of love will replace the love of power. Then will our world know the blessings of peace. 

SHOW ME the manner in which a nation or a community cares for its dead and I will measure with mathematical exactness the tender sympathies of its people — their respect for the laws of the land and their loyalty to high ideals. 

        LIBERALISM is trust of the people tempered by prudence. Conservatism is distrust of the people tempered by fear. 

       BE HAPPY with what you have & are, be generous with both & you won’t have to hunt for happiness. 

    MEN are apt to mistake the strength of their feeling for the strength of their argument. The heated mind resents the chill touch and relentless scrutiny of logic. 

        NO ONE EVER BECAME GREAT except through many and great mistakes. 

              YOU CANNOT FIGHT AGAINST THE FUTURE. TIME IS ON ITS SIDE. 

                          ONE EXAMPLE IS WORTH A THOUSAND ARGUMENTS. 

                                     JUSTICE DELAYED IS JUSTICE DENIED.

           NATIONAL INJUSTICE IS THE SUREST ROAD TO NATIONAL DOWNFALL.

      NEVER FORGET that the purpose for which a man lives is the improvement of the man himself, so that he may go out of this world having in his great sphere or his small one, done some little good for his fellow creatures & labored a little to diminish the sin & sorrow that are in the world. 

               SELFISHNESS IS THE GREATEST CURSE OF THE HUMAN RACE. 

         BE INSPIRED with the belief that life is a great & noble calling; not a mean & groveling thing that we are to shuffle through as we can but an elevated & lofty destiny.

        BOOKS ARE A DELIGHTFUL SOCIETY. If you go into a room & find it full of books — even without taking the from the shelves they seem to speak to you, to bid you welcome. 

      GOOD LAWS MAKE IT EASIER TO DO RIGHT & HARDER TO DO WRONG.
