And who do they blame? Not Islam. Not their leadership. Not themselves. THEY BLAME THE COUNTRIES THEY ARE HAPPY IN! AND THEY WANT TO CHANGE THEM TO BE LIKE THE COUNTRY THEY CAME FROM WHERE THEY WERE UNHAPPY. ---------------- that wouldn't be any more romantic if manilow sang it in a bubble bath ------------- In 1952, Armon M. Sweat, Jr., a member of the Texas House of Representatives, was asked about his position on whiskey. What follows is his answer, taken from the State Archives: ... "If you mean whiskey, the devil's brew, the poison scourge, the bloody monster that defiles innocence, dethrones reason, destroys the home, creates misery and poverty, yea, literally takes the bread from the mouths of little children; if you mean that evil drink that topples Christian men and women from the pinnacles of righteous and gracious living into the bottomless pit of degradation, shame, despair, helplessness, and hopelessness, then, my friend, I am opposed to it with every fiber of my being. However, if by whiskey you mean the lubricant of conversation, the philosophic juice, the elixir of life, the liquid that is consumed when good fellows get together, that puts a song in their hearts and the warm glow of contentment in their eyes; if you mean Christmas cheer, the stimulating sip that puts a little spring in the step of an elderly gentleman on a frosty morning; if you mean that drink that enables man to magnify his joy, and to forget life's great tragedies and heartbreaks and sorrow; if you mean that drink the sale of which pours into Texas treasuries untold millions of dollars each year, that provides tender care for our little crippled children, our blind, our deaf, our dumb, our pitifully aged and infirm, to build the finest highways, hospitals, universities, and community colleges in this nation, then my friend, I am absolutely, unequivocally in favor of it. This is my position, and as always, I refuse to compromise on matters of principle." ----------- People too weak to follow their own dreams will always find a way to discourage yours. --------- "You cannot help the poor by destroying the rich. You cannot strengthen the weak by weakening the strong. You cannot bring about prosperity by discouraging thrift. You cannot lift the wage earner up by pulling the wage payer down. You cannot further the brotherhood of man by inciting class hatred. You cannot build character and courage by taking away men's initiative and independence. You cannot help men permanently by doing for them, what they could and should do for thems...Expand for more
elves." — Abraham Lincoln ------------ Knowledge is the tool of life.-----Sheriff Andy Taylor ---------- The obscure we see eventually. The completely obvious, it seems, takes longer.---Edward R. Murrow --------- WORRYING does not take away tomorrow's TROUBLES; it takes away today’s PEACE. ---- "Hope is not a strategy" Benjamin Ola Akande ---- "the thing about being involved with this, from the coaching side of it is, you've got to picture yourself as someone who's here to serve the players" Rick Carlisle ~ after winning the NBA title 2011 ---- #1 Rule of Life: Don't sweat the petty things and don't pet the sweaty things. Jodi Kenna ---- "America will always do the right thing, but only after exhausting all other options." Winston Churchill ---- “I have traded in my camouflage uniform for a suit and tie, But the commitment to protect the people of the United States is still my mission.” Congressman Allen West FL 22 ---- Keep this philosophy in mind the next time you hear, or you are about to repeat a rumor. In ancient Greece (469 - 399 BC), Socrates was widely lauded for his wisdom. One day the great philosopher came upon an acquaintance, who ran up to him excitedly and said, "Socrates, do you know what I just heard about one of your students?" "Wait a moment," Socrates replied. "Before you tell me, I'd like you to pass a little test. It's called the Test of Three." "Test of Three?" "That's correct," Socrates continued. "Before you talk to me about my student let's take a moment to test what you're going to say. The first test is Truth. Have you made absolutely sure that what you are about to tell me is true?" "No," the man replied, "actually I just heard about it." "All right," said Socrates. "So you don't really know if it's true or not. Now let's try the second test, the test of Goodness. Is what you are about to tell me about my student something good?" "No, on the contrary." "So," Socrates continued, "you want to tell me something bad about him even though you're not certain it's true?" The man shrugged, a little embarrassed. Socrates continued, "You may still pass though because there is a third test - the filter of Usefulness. Is what you want to tell me about my student going to be useful to me?" "No, not really." "Well," concluded Socrates, "if what you want to tell me is neither True nor Good nor even Useful, why tell it to me at all?" ---- Sleep that knits up the raveled sleeve of care~~William Shakespeare ---- "Great minds discuss ideas. Average minds discuss events. Small minds discuss people." -- Eleanor Roosevelt ---- I’m gonna work like I don’t need the money. Darius Rucker ---- most of y'all don't get the picture 'less the flash is on. Lil Wayne ---- Trouble can come up faster than a stiffy on prom night.Willy Nelson ----- Make sure you're dreams are saddled before you try to ride'em.... Johnny Cash ------ God spreads grace like a 4 year old boy spreads peanut butter.... He gets it on everything! >Mark Lowry. ---- Be open minded, just don't let your brains spill out ---- PRAYER is not a Spare Wheel that u pull out when U r in trouble, Use it as a Steering Wheel that keeps you on the right path through out the life. ----- Our lives are the only Bible some people will ever read. ---- Watch your thoughts ; they become words. Watch your words; they become actions. Watch your actions; they become habits.. Watch your habits; they become character. ---- In the 60's, people took acid to make the world weird. Now the world is weird and people take Prozac to make it normal.".
