SkiD_PL8 0 #5 August 7, 2004 Here are a few of my favorites. As a well-spent day brings happy sleep, so life well used brings happy death. -Leonardo da Vinci Those who dream by day are cognizant of many things which escape those who dream only by night. -Edgar Allan Poe You gain strength, courage and confidence by every experience in which you really stop to look fear in the face. You are able to say to yourself, 'I have lived through this horror. I can take the next thing that comes along.' You must do the thing you think you cannot do. -Eleanor Roosevelt We can't all be heroes because somebody has to sit on the curb and clap as they go by. -Will Rogers What's the use of a good quotation if you can't change it? -Doctor Who There are risks and costs to a program of action. But they are far less than the long-range risks and costs of comfortable inaction. -John F. Kennedy Greenie in training. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

pringles 0 #12 August 8, 2004 When I got to work today I found out one of my friends on the emergency response team here at work died in an accident yesterday. The other team member that told me, finished telling me about the accident and said "Well Matt, none of us are going to get out of here alive." I don't know if he made this quote up or if its just the first time I have heard it but I figured it would be a nice addition here. Matt Davies Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

907 0 #15 August 9, 2004 My favorite: "You will begin to touch heaven, Jonathan, in the moment that you touch perfect speed. And that isn't flying a thousand miles an hour, or a million, or flying at the speed of light. Because any number is a limit, and perfection doesn't have limits. Perfect speed, my son, is being there." ”Verden har mange mangler, der mangelen på nytenkning er den største” Mikael Gorbatsjov Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
