Little men with little minds and little imaginations go through life in little ruts, smugly resisting all changes which would jar their little worlds. Zig Ziglar
Lives of great men all remind us, we can make our lives sublime, and, departing, leave behind us, footprints on the sands of time. Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
Love alone can unite living beings so as to complete and fulfill them... for it alone joins them by what is deepest in themselves. All we need is to imagine our ability to love developing until it embraces the totality of men and the earth. Pierre Teilhard de Chardin
