Fatherhood,
like marriage, is a constant struggle
against your limitations and
self-interests. But the urge to be a
perfect father is there, because your
child is a perfect gift. --Kent Nerburn,
from Letters to My Son

Amnesia
is the handmaiden of hypocrisy. -- Francis
Wheen

I
am convinced that the world is not a mere
bog in which men and women trample
themselves and die. Something magnificent
is taking place here amidst the cruelties
and tragedies, and the supreme challenge
to intelligence is that of making the
noblest and best in our curious heritage
prevail. -- C.A. Beard

The
next time you notice yourself 'giving in'
to your woman, postponing your mission and
denying your true purpose in order to
spend time with her, stop. Tell your woman
that you love her, but you cannot deny
your heart's purpose. Tell her that you
will spend 30 minutes (or some specific
time) with her in absolute attention and
total presence, but then you must return
to carry on your mission. -- David
Deida

If
the word has the potency to revive and
make us free, it has also the power to
blind, imprison, and destroy. - Ralph
Ellison

Character
is an essential tendency. It can be
covered up, it can be messed with, it can
be screwed around with, but it can't be
ultimately changed. It's like the
structure of our bones, the blood that
runs through our veins. - Sam
Shepard

The
wedding march always reminds me of the
music played when soldiers go into battle.
- Heinrich Heine

This
world is white no longer, and it will
never be white again. - James
Baldwin

Don't
condescend to unskilled labor. Try it for
a half a day first. - Brooks
Atkinson

God
enters by a private door into every
individual. - Ralph Waldo
Emerson

Most
men are slowly committing
suicide
- they just don't know it. - Gordon
