Quote of the Day

"Greatness is out there
For any who would achieve it,
If their aim is fair
Who fires at else beside it."

Quote of the Day

"...that which we are, we are,
One equal temper of heroic hearts,
Made weak by time and fate, but strong in will
To strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield."
Tennyson, "Ulysses"

Some people are always grumbling that roses have thorns;
I am thankful that thorns have roses.
Alphonse Karr

Quote of the Day

I am loath to close. We are not enemies, but friends. We must not be enemies. Though passion may have strained, it must not break our bonds of affection. The mystic chords of memory, stretching from every battle-field, and patriot grave, to every living heart and hearth-stone... will yet swell... when again touched, as surely they will be, by the better angels of our nature.
Abraham Lincoln

Quote of the Day

"Cowards die many times before their deaths;
The valiant never taste of death but once."
Julius Caesar (2, ii)

Ezra Pound
