Favorite Quotes
Work Hard and Prosper or Live Long and Prosper! [Vulcan]
Measure Twice, Cut Once.
Manners maketh the Man;
(and common courtesy a close second)
I shall pass through this world but once. Any good, therefore, that I can do or any kindness I can show to any human being, let me do it now.[Stephen Grellet]
There is a tide in the affairs of men.
Which, taken at the flood, leads on to fortune;
Omitted, all the voyage of their life
Is bound in shallows and in miseries.
On such a full sea are we now afloat… [W.S]
