| You, whose day this is, get out your rainbow colors, that you might make it beautiful. -- Nekoosa Native American Saying |

| People do not seem to realize that their opinion of the world is also a confession of character. -- Ralph Waldo Emerson |
| A grandfather was talking to his grandson about how he felt. He said, "I feel as if I have two wolves fighting in my heart. One wolf is vengeful, angry and hateful. The other is fair, compassionate and loving." The grandson asked him, "Which wolf will win the fight in your heart?" The grandfather answered, "The one I feed" -- Native American Proverb |
| Keep your fears to yourself, but share your courage with others. -- Robert Louis Stevenson |
| What a cruel thing it is to fill our hearts with hatred for our neighbors and to devastate the fair face of this beautiful world. -- Gen. Robert E. Lee |
| So long as we love, we serve; so long as we are loved by others, I would say that we are indispensable; no one is useless while they have a friend. -- Robert Louis Stevenson |

| Each second we live is a new and unique moment, a moment that will never be again. And what do we teach our children? We teach them that 2 and 2 make 4 and that Paris is the capital of France. When will we also teach them what they are? We should say to each of them: You are unique. In all the years that have passed, there has never been another child like you. You are a marvel. You have the capacity for anything. We must all work to make the world worthy of its children. -- Pablo Casais |
| Remember that you are an actor in a play and the playwright chooses the manner of it...your business is to act the character that is given you, and act it well; the choice of the cast is another's. -- Epictetus |
