Hi Jim,
It occurred to me that I haven't been in here lately to see what you had to offer.
My loss, decidedly!
Thank you for faithfully continuing to find these gems.
Karen

Another great round Jim.
Anything from Ghandi on work ethics, is golden.
Jay Leno had a handle on how internet marketers work when he said.
Give a man a fish and he will eat for a day. Teach a man to fish and he will eat for a lifetime. Teach a man to create an artificial shortage of fish and he will eat steak.

Hi Guys
This is one quote I had to share as soon as I noticed it.
I love quotations because it is a joy to find thoughts one might have, beautifully expressed with much authority by someone recognized wiser than oneself.
Marlene Dietrich
I hope you understand why I like this one.
Jim

Hi Folks
A mixed bag to get this week off to a flying start.
A happy life consists not in the absence, but in the mastery of hardships.
Helen Keller
A dog is the only thing on earth that loves you more than you love yourself.
Josh Billings
A woman drove me to drink and I didn't even have the decency to thank her.
W. C. Fields
Have a great week everybody.
Jim

"Surely there is something in the unruffled calm of nature that overawes our little anxieties and doubts; the sight of the deep-blue sky and the clustering stars above seems to impart a quiet to the mind." -Jonathan Edwards
Good advice to let the wonders of nature relax us when we start to worry or get anxious.

Hi Folks
Been kinda busy this week, hence the reason for the later than usual quotes.
So without further ado, here they are.
People begin to become successful the minute they decide to be.
Harvey Mackay
The future belongs to those who believe in their dreams.
Eleanor Roosevelt
Take the first step in faith. You don't have to see the whole staircase, just take the first step.
Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.
Have a great week weekend.
Jim

Thanks, Jim.
These are terrific.
It's a good thing I don't have to choose a favorite because I'd have a hard time doing so.

Hi Folks Nice and early this week.  Three quotes for your thoughts and entertainment. Sometimes I think the surest sign that intelligent life exists elsewhere in the universe is that none of it has tried to contact us. Bill Watterson A woman knows she's wearing the right dress, when her man wants to take it off. Robert Paul If you want to identify me, ask me not where I live, or what I like to eat, or how I comb my hair, but ask me what I am living for, in detail, and ask me what I think is keeping me from living fully for the thing I want to live for. Thomas Merton Have a great (and profitable) week everyone. Jim

Hi folks
3 to get your week off to a great start.
It is our duty as men and women to proceed as though the limits to our abilities do not exist.
Pierre Teilhard de Chardin
What we think, or what we know, or what we believe is, in the end, of little consequence. The only consequence is what we do.
John Ruskin
Just as it is essential to know the difference between working hard and working smart, so we must understand the difference between creating something big, and creating something meaningful.
Philip E. Humbert, PhD.
Have a great week
Jim
