We're poor little lambs who've lost our way, Baa Baa Baa We're little black sheep who've gone astray, Baa-aa-aa Gentlemen-rankers out on the spree, Damned from here to Eternity, God ha' mercy on such as we, Baa Yah Bah.

Richard Eberhart

One may have a blazing hearth in one's soul and yet no one ever came to sit by it. Passers-by see only a wisp of smoke from the chimney and continue on their way.

Vincent van Gogh

Focused, hard work is the real key to success. Keep your eyes on the goal, and just keep taking the next step towards completing it. If you aren't sure which way to do something, do it both ways and see which works better.
