Even longer,' Pooh answered.” ~ A.A. Milne, Winnie-the-Pooh "Sometimes me think, 'What is friend?' and then me say, 'Friend is someone to share the last cookie with.' " ~ Cookie Monster "The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results." ~ misattributed to Albert Einstein, Benjamin Franklin, and Mark Twain ~ Narcotics Anonymous, 1981 "Great minds discuss ideas, mediocre minds discuss events, little minds discuss people." ~ attributed to Eleanor Roosevelt "Security is mostly a superstition. It does not exist in nature, nor do the children of men as a whole experience it. Avoiding danger is no safer in the long run than outright exposure. Life is either a daring adventure, or nothing." ~ Helen Keller (1880-1968), The Open Door "A weak mind with no common sense magnifies trifling things and cannot receive great ones." ~ Lord Chesterfield "Be the change you wish to see." ~ attributed to Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi "Be formless... shapeless, like water. Now you put water into a cup, it becomes the cup. You pour water into a bottle; it becomes the bottle. You put water into a teapot; it becomes the teapot. Now water can flow, or creep or drip or crash! Be water, my friend..." ~ Jun Fan "Bruce" Lee, American philosopher, author, martial artist, actor "Happiness is not attained through self-gratification but through fidelity to a worthy purpose." ~ Helen Keller "The purpose of life is not to be happy. It is to be useful, to be honorable, to be compassionate, to have it make some difference that you have lived and lived well." ~ Ralph Waldo Emerson "Don’t believe what your eyes are telling you. All they show is limitation. Look with your understanding." ~ Richard Bach, from the novel Jonathan Livingston Seagull "A smart man only believes half of what he hears, a wise man knows which half." ~ John Dean "Jeff" Cooper, (1920-2006); LtCol, USMC; one of the 20th century's foremost experts on the use and history of small arms " People sleep peaceably in their beds at night only because rough men stand ready to do violence on their behalf." - attributed to George Orwell (1903 1950) "Neither the police nor the US Marines will protect you. You alone are capable of protecting yourself. See to it." - Jeff Cooper LtCol, USMC "Tempus fugit. Memento mori." "Time flies. Remember your mortality." ~ unknown ...Expand for more
"Love all, trust a few, do wrong to none." ~ William Shakespeare, All's Well That Ends Well, Act i, Sc.1 "The only way you can hurt the body is not use it. Inactivity is the killer and, remember, it's never too late." ~ Francois Henri "Jack" LaLanne (1914 – 2011), American fitness, exercise, nutritional expert; motivational speaker, author, former fitness television show host, "the godfather of fitness" "Humans are the only animals who will follow unstable pack leaders." ~ Cesar Millan, the Dog Whisperer "Primum non nocere."

In life, you're given a test that teaches you a lesson.” - Tom Bodett "Actions speak louder than words." - ancient proverb "Inaction screams louder than both actions and words combined." ~ Frank A (some random fb dude) "Life is fleeting. One moment, you see it right before your eyes. And the very next moment, it's gone. Some moments are lasting, others more brief. Some moments are eventful, others more ordinary. Appreciate others, because once their moment is over, it's too late. You never know when their moment-- or yours-- will melt away." ~ Frank A (some random fb dude) R.I.P. Bounty (July 10, 1990-January 22, 2009) Si vis pacem, para bellum. loosely translated as "Pray for peace, prepare for war." - Vegetius, in Epitoma Rei Militaris "A well regulated militia, being necessary to the security of a free state, the right of the people to keep and bear arms, shall not be infringed." - Second Amendment to the United States Constitution "I respect everyone I meet-- until they earn my disrespect." ~ Frank A "Silence is an ocean. Speech is a river." - Jalal ad-Din Muhammad Balkhi AKA Rumi, (1207–1273), Persian philosopher, poet, founder of the Mevlevi (or Mawlawi) order of Sufism "The lion who breaks the enemy's ranks is a minor hero compared to the lion who overcomes himself." "Many have been led astray by the Qur'an: by clinging to that rope many have fallen into the well. There is no fault in the rope, O perverse man, for it was you who had no desire to reach the top." "Out beyond ideas of wrongdoing and rightdoing, there is a field. I will meet you there." - Rumi "The primary responsibility of the media is accountability of government." - Tim Russert (1950-2008), American journalist, former moderator of Meet the Press "Certainly there is no hunting like the hunting of man and those who have hunted armed men long enough and liked it, never really care for anything else thereafter."
