Edward Abbey "May your trails be crooked, winding, lonesome, dangerous, leading to the most amazing view. May your mountains rise into and above the clouds." Khalil Gibran "The teacher who is indeed wise does not bid you to enter the house of his wisdom but rather leads you to the threshold of your mind." Norman Vincent Peale "Stand up to your obstacles and do something about them. You will find that they haven't half the strength you think they have." Paulo Coelho "You have to take risks. We will only understand the miracle of life fully when we allow the unexpected to happen." Marcus Garvey "A people without the knowledge of their past history, origin and culture is like a tree without roots." |
