Hi folks,

Another week arrives, another dose of quotes.

A bonus at the end.


Love has nothing to do with what you are expecting to get, only with what you are expected to give... Which is everything.

               Katherine Hepburn


Men often become what they believe themselves to be.
If I believe I cannot do something, it makes me incapable of doing it.
But when I believe I can, then I acquire the ability to do it even if I didn't have it in the beginning.

               Mahatma Gandhi


What a pity that so many people rather believe their doubts and doubt their beliefs.…
Why don't we just decide to have no doubts, and believe our beliefs!
Fear and worry is just the misuse of the creative powers we originally got to dream.

               Jannie Putter


Your bonus just for Fathers day.

Fathers day specials, original translations, from dubious greetings cards.


Its like Blackpool illuminations in here! translates to:

Turn off those lights!


Money doesn't grow on trees you know! translates to:

No, you can't have it!


Are you trying to heat the whole street? translates to:


Shut the blo*dy front door will you?

Enjoy your week.

Homer's a dreamer. You need at least $20,000 to be a millionaire.

Quotes of the week. Nice simple to understand quotes.

You can only decide how you're going to live. Now.

Hi Good People,

I know you cannot wait for the next installment of my weekly thought provoking or humorous " "s 

So without further ado, here goes:



A year from now you may wish you had started today.                             Good one for the procrastinators!

                 Karen Lamb


We owe a lot to Thomas Edison
- if it wasn't for him, we'd be watching television by candlelight.

                 Milton Berle

[Jim Burney]

Hey Ho Folks

Another week, another dollar awaiting.

I digress.

This week's quotes:


If you want to get somewhere you have to know where you want to go and how to get there. Then never, never, never give up."

             Norman Vincent Peale


Show me a man with both feet on the ground and I'll show you a man who can't get his pants on.

            Joe E. Lewis


A universe with a God would look quite different from a universe without one. A physics, a biology where there is a God is bound to look different. So the most basic claims of religion are scientific. Religion is a scientific theory.

            Richard Dawkins


Please feel free to comment on this week's quotes.

Have a profitable week everyone

Then never, never, never give up.

Hi guys,

I've been looking at this one on my desk for a while.  I hope you like it.

"You don't predict the future and then wait.  You create the future." -- Vice Chairman Yun

Kind of a great call to action...and imagination.  MM

[JasonWhite]

Yep, that's true. That's one of our biggest problems in our culture now in that everyone expects a handout instead of going after what it is you want.
