inspiring

The only way of finding the limits of the possible is by going beyond them into the impossible.

Words do inspire.

God sometimes does try to the uttermost those whom he wishes to bless.

If you take responsibility for yourself you will develop a hunger to accomplish your dreams.

Education is not the filling of a pail, but the lighting of a fire.

Be yourself in a world that is trying night and day to make you everyone else.

Those who are realistic and practical are less realistic and practical in the long run than those who dream big dreams and passionately pursue them.

"If there is magic on this planet, it is contained in water."  The Immense Journey, 1957   Loren Eiseley

  ... [He] is not famous. It may be that he never will be. It may be that when his life at last comes to an end he will leave no more trace of his sojourn on earth than a stone thrown into a river leaves on the surface of the water. But it may be that the way of life that he has chosen for himself and the peculiar strength and sweetness of his character may have an ever-growing influence over his fellow men so that, long after his death perhaps, it may be realized that there lived in this age a very remarkable creature.

If I could tell the world just one thing
It would be that we're all OK
And not to worry 'cause worry is wasteful
And useless in times like these
I won't be made useless
I won't be idle with despair
I will gather myself around my faith
For light does the darkness most fear

My hands are small, I know
But they're not yours, they are my own
But they're not yours, they are my own
And I am never broken
