"We thought we were going to get television but
television got us," - Quizz
Show "The budget must be balanced, government indebtedness must be reduced, the arrogant authorities must be moderated and controlled, people should learn to work again instead of living of the public dole," - Cicero (106-43BC)
The man who makes no mistakes does not
usually make anything, "Treat
people as if they were what they ought to be, and you help them to become
what they are capable of becoming." "A
smooth sea never made a skilful mariner." "Fall
seven times, stand up eight." "Nobody
can be exactly like me. "For every one pupil who needs to be guarded from a weak excess of sensibility there are three who need to be awakened from the slumber of cold vulgarity...The task of the modern educator is not to cut down jungles but to irrigate deserts" - C S Lewis. |
 Alexander Graeme Bell "It is my warm and world embracing Christmas hope and aspiration that all of us - the high, the low, the rich, the poor, admired, the despised, the loved, the civilised, the savage may eventually be gathered together in a heaven of everlasting rest and peace and bliss - except the inventor of the telephone" - Mark Twain, 1890. |
| "Until one is committed there is
hesitancy, the chance to draw back, always ineffectiveness. Concerning all acts of initiative and creation, there is one elementary truth, the ignorance of which kills countless ideas and splendid plans; that the moment one definitely commits oneself, then , then Providence moves too. All sorts of things occur to help one that would never otherwise have occurred. A whole steam of events issue from the decision, raising in one's favour all manner of unforeseen incidents, meetings and material assistance which no man could have dreamt would have come his way," - W H Murray from the Scottish Himalayan Expedition. "The words of the
Lord are pure words: as silver tried in the furnace of earth seven times. Thou shalt
preserve them from this generation forever,"

Spiritwind - Keith Newman (circa 1984) "As many as received him, to them he gave power to become the sons of God, even to
them that believed on his name; which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the
flesh, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God," - John 1:

“Emotional pain always results when life’s experiences go
beyond the answers we already have. Dig deeper for more wisdom or go on
hurting,” Empathy is your pain in my heart – Unknown "It's
so simple to be wise. Just think of something stupid to say and then don't
say it," "Far
better it is to dare mighty things, to win glorious triumphs, even though
checkered by failure, than to rank with those poor spirits who neither
enjoy much nor suffer much because they live in the gray twilight that
knows not victory or defeat." "Vision
without action is a daydream. Action without vision is a nightmare, "The
most damaging phrase in the language is: 'It's always been done that
way," "Oh,
my friend, it's not what they take away from you that counts. It's what
you do with what you have left." - Hubert H. Humphrey "Some
people die at 25 and aren't buried until 75." "Never
confuse a single defeat with a final defeat." |
| "Commitment is what transforms
a promise into reality. It is the words that speak boldly of your intentions. And the
actions which speak louder than the words. It is making the time when there is none.
Coming through time after time after time, year after year after year. Commitment is the stuff character is made of; the power to change the face of things. It is the daily triumph of integrity over skepticism," American Express. “If you refuse to pull away from God, tragedy and temptation can actually draw you to a fuller knowledge of the truth than you’ve ever known before. Nothing can separate you from the love of God that is in Jesus Christ,” - The Hidden Rift with God, William Backus. |
