        My favorite quote and the one I try to live by:



        " The harder I work, the luckier I get" - Samuel Goldwyn
        Adversity temporarily visits a strong man but stays with the weak for a lifetime.

          “I often warn people: ‘Somewhere along the way, someone is going to tell you, ‘There is no ‘I’ in team.’ What you should tell them is, ‘Maybe not. But there is an ‘I’ in independence, individuality, and integrity.” – George Carlin

          “Think of how stupid the average person is, and then realize that half of them are stupider than that.” – George Carlin

            There is no I in team, but there is a U in suck.

                  The quality of mercy is not straind.
                  It droppeth as the gentle rain from heaven
                  Upon the place beneath. It is twice blest:
                  It blesseth him that gives and him that takes.

                          A tree is known by its fruit, a man by his deeds. A good deed is never lost, he who sows courtesy, reaps friendship, and he who plants kindness gathers love.
                          Blessed are they who can laugh at themselves, for they shall never cease to be amused.

                              I am certain that somewhere in your life you have met a young female who act like she believes the following, "I'm not conceited. Conceit is a fault and I have no faults."
