"Tomorrow is the most important thing in life. Comes into us at midnight very clean. It's perfect when it arrives and it puts itself in our hands. It hopes we've learned something from yesterday."
-- John Wayne
To live is to suffer, to survive is to find some meaning in the suffering
"In each of us, two natures are at war � the good and the evil. All our lives the fight goes on between them, and one of them must conquer. But in our own hands lies the power to choose � what we want most to be we are.
God grant me the serenity to accept things I cannot change
Courage to change the things I can
and Wisdom to know the difference
Luck never gives...it only lends
f we are willing to work for it, and fight for it, and believe in it, then I am absolutely certain that generations from now, we will be able to look back and tell our children that this was the moment when we began to provide care for the sick and good jobs to the jobless; this was the moment when the rise of the oceans began to slow and our planet began to heal; this was the moment when we ended a war and secured our nation and restored our image as the last, best hope on earth. This was the moment � this was the time � when we came together to remake this great nation so that it may always reflect our very best selves and our highest ideals.
-Barack Obama
I look forward to a great future for America, a future in which our
country will match its military strength with our moral restraint, its
wealth with our wisdom, its power with our purpose. And I look forward
to an America which commands respect throughout the world not only for
its strength but for its civilization as well.
-JFK
I have left orders to be awakened at any time in case of national emergency, even if I'm in a cabinet meeting. Ronald Reagan
Abortion is advocated only by persons who have themselves been born. Ronald Reagan
I don't believe in a government that protects us from ourselves. Ronald Reagan
The government's view of the economy could be summed up in a few short phrases: If it moves, tax it. If it keeps moving, regulate it. And if it stops moving, subsidize it. Ronald Reagan
“I've learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel.” - Maya Angelou
"Happiness is not having what you want, but wanting what you have"
"Life is short. Forgive quickly, Kiss slowly, Love truly, Laugh uncontrollably, and NEVER regret anything that made you smile."
"The hardest challenge is to be yourself in a world where everyone is trying to make you be somebody else."
"Love yourself. Make peace with who you are and where you are at this moment in time. Listen to your heart. If you can't hear what it's saying in this noisy world, Make time for yourself. Enjoy your own company. Let your mind wander among the stars. Try. Take chances. Make mistakes. Life can be messy and confusing at times, but it's also full of surprises. The next rock in your path might be a stepping-stone. Be happy. When you don't have what you want, want what you have. Make do. That's a well kept secret of contentment. There aren't any shortcuts to tomorrow. You have to make your own way. To know where you're going is only part of it. You need to know where you've been, too. And if you ever get lost, don't worry. The people who love you will find you. Count on it. Life isn't days and years. It's what you do with time and with all the goodness and grace thats inside you. Make a beautiful life... The kind of life you deserve."
