There are many words you could use to describe men today.
You could say they are charming, strong, caring.... You would be wrong, but you could say that about them." "When I read about the evils of drinking, I gave up reading." - Henny Youngman Christmas waves a magic wand over this world and behold, everything is softer and more beautiful. --Norman Vincent Peale Christmas is the gentlest, loveliest festival of the revolving year and yet, for all that, when it speaks, its voice has strong authority. --W.J. Cameron I will honor Christmas in my heart and try to keep it all the year. --Charles Dickens |

"If you love something, set it free. If it comes back, it will
always be yours. If it doesn't come back, it was never yours to begin with. But, if it just sits in your living room, messes up your stuff, eats your food, uses your telephone, takes your money, and doesn't appear to realize that you had set it free....... You either married it or gave birth to it"

An optimist stays up until midnight to see the new year in. A pessimist stays up to make sure the old year leaves.
--Bill Vaughan A New Year's resolution is something that goes in one year and out the other. --Unknown Be always at war with your vices, at peace with your neighbors and let each new year find you a better man. --Benjamin Franklin |

It is a good thing to be rich, it is a good thing to be strong, but it is a better thing to be beloved of many friends.
--Euripides Be kinder than necessary, for everyone you meet is fighting some kind of battle. --Unknown Waste your money and you're only out of money, but waste your time and you've lost part of your life. --Michael Leboeuf |

Nothing is ever lost by courtesy. It is the cheapest of pleasures, costs nothing and conveys much.
Erastus Wiman Sometimes your joy is the source of your smile, but sometimes your smile can be the source of your joy. Unknown The important thing is this: to be able, at any moment, to sacrifice what we are for what we could become. Charles Du Bos

Only two things are infinite: the universe and human stupidity. And I'm not sure about the former.
--Albert Einstein He who reigns within himself and rules his passions, desires and fears is more than a king. --John Milton Courage is what it takes to stand up and speak; courage is also what it takes to sit down and listen. --Winston Churchill |

Love cures people: both the ones who give it and the ones who receive it.
--Dr. Karl Menninger Hold fast to dreams for if dreams die, life is a broken winged bird that cannot fly. --Unknown Excellence is an art won by training and habituation. We do not act rightly because we have virtue or excellence, but rather we have those because we have acted rightly. We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act, but a habit. --Aristotle |

Faith is the strength by which a shattered world shall emerge into the light.
--Helen Keller The manner in which it is given is worth more than the gift. --Pierre Corneille Waste your money and you're only out of money, but waste your time and you've lost part of your life. --Michael Leboeuf |
