Favorite Quote:
&quot;It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat.&quot;<br /> --Theodore Roosevelt

An essay is like a miniskirt: long enough to cover the subject, but short enough to keep things interesting.&quot; <br /> <br /> Happiness is a form of courage. ~Holbrook Jackson<br /> <br /> &quot;There is nothing to writing. All you do is sit down at a typewriter and bleed.&quot; &mdash; Ernest Hemingway<br /> <br /> Everybody is a genius. But if you judge a fish by its ability to climb a tree it will spend its whole life believing it&#039;s stupid. <br /> -Einstein <br /> <br /> &quot;Fairy tales are more than true; not because they tell us that dragons exist, but because they tell us that dragons can be beaten.&quot; &mdash; G.K. Chesterton<br /> <br /> &quot;The statistics on sanity are that one out of every four people is suffering from a mental illness. Look at your 3 best friends. If they&#039;re ok, then it&#039;s you.&quot;&mdash; Rita Mae Brown<br /> <br /> &quot;Keep away from people who try to belittle your ambitions. Small people always do that, but the really great make you feel that you, too, can become great.&quot;&mdash; Mark Twain<br /> <br /> &quot;Creativity is knowing how to hide your sources&quot;&mdash; Albert Einstein<br /> <br /> &quot;Knowing yourself is the beginning of all wisdom.&quot;&mdash; Aristotle<br /> <br /> &quot;Do one thing everyday that scares you.&quot;&mdash; Eleanor Roosevelt<br /> <br /> &quot;It takes much bravery to stand up to our enemies but we need as much bravery to stand up to our friends.&quot;&mdash; J.K. Rowling (Harry Potter and the Sorcerer&#039;s Stone)<br /> <br /> <br /> &quot;Well,&quot; said Pooh, &quot;what I like best,&quot; and then he had to stop and think. Because although Eating Honey was a very good thing to do, there was a moment just before you began to eat it which was better than when you were, but he didn&#039;t know what it was called. ~A.A. Milne
