Vitruvius

We need to love more rather than be loved.We need to give more rather than to take.We need to be more open rather than be closed off to new ideas.Life is short, so let's enjoy what it has to offer moment to moment.

David Dinkins

The time to take counsel of your fears is before you make an important battle decision. That's the time to listen to every fear you can imagine! When you have collected all the facts and fears and made your decision, turn off all your fears and go ahead!

George S. Patton

Edmund Burke
