About Me

Try not to become a man of success but a man of value. Albert Einstein **** If you have built castles in the air, your work need not be lost; that is where they should be. Now put foundations under them. Henry David Thoreau **** Let thy words be few. Ecclesiastes 5:2 **** The only way of finding the limits of the possible is by going beyond them into the impossible. Arthur C. Clarke **** Work spares us from three evils: boredom, vice, and need. Voltaire ~~~ By far, one of my favorite quotes~~~ **** Great spirits have always encountered violent opposition from mediocre minds. Albert Einstein **** When one door of happiness closes, another opens, but often we look so long at the closed door that we do not see the one that has been opened for us. Helen Keller **** Happiness depends more on the inward disposition of mind than on outward circumstances. Benjamin Franklin ****
