"On this Independence Day, we should remember two very important principles: 1) With rights there come responsibilities and vice versa. You give up your rights when you don't live up to your responsibilities. 2) Only privileges can be taken away by the g...Expand for more
overnment. Any government which attempts to govern outside of these principles will ultimately fail as it's citizens rebel against it."
- Mark Chase
"If I put myself on a pedestal, I will fall and hurt myself. If you put me on a pedestal, I will fall and hurt you."
- Mark Chase
"There is nothing inherently wrong or evil about being wealthy. There is nothing inherently demeaning or insignificant about being a servant. The reason America and much of the world is in chaos is because people in both places have lost understanding and respect for both roles."
- Mark Chase
"It's a very sobering moment when you realize that you cannot remain in the lives of everyone you meet, know and love in Life. I've decided to simply accept that it's important that I have a positive impact on their lives while I'm here and pray that my absence does not overshadow that when I'm gone."
- Mark Chase
"Someone once said that Knowledge is Power. Application of Knowledge is Power. You can no more achieve a goal simply by learning any more than you can drive to a destination simply by filling a vehicle with fuel. How many of us have not reached our full potential because we haven't started the ignition and put the vehicle in motion?"
- Mark Chase
"We can only be in the lives of those we love when we are meant to be if we are striving to be the person we are meant to be to all we love and to those who love us. Those who TRULY love us know that sometimes our thoughts, hearts and prayers are all we have to give them and forgive us for the time that we spend away. Still, it is important to take time for them because time is the one gift that has an expiration date."
- Mark Chase
"Sometimes, we obligate ourselves but we are all obligated to be ourselves"
- Mark Chase
Sometimes not being "Normal" isn't a bad thing. I haven't been normal a day in my life.
- Robert Griffin III
"If you want your most intimate relationships to last, start with this: Love does not start with your feelings. Love does not end because of your feelings. Love exists because you both understand and accept who you are and believe that the person you have allowed into your life belongs in it NO MATTER HOW YOU FEEL!"
- Mark Chase
"No man is above the law and no man is below it: nor do we ask any man's permission when we ask him to obey it."
- Theodore Roosevelt".
