We don't stop playing because we grow old;
We grow old because we stop playing.

If you wait for the perfect moment

When all is safe and assured,
It may never arrive.
Mountains will not be climbed,

Races won,

Or lasting happiness achieved.
- Maurice Chevalier

Love is always open arms.
If you close your arms

About love you will find that
You are left holding only yourself.

081921 quotes

Words create impressions,

Images and expectations.

They build psychological connections.

They influence how we think.

Since thoughts determine actions,

There’s a powerful connection between

The words we use and the results we get.

- Nan S. Russell


Ambition is expecting the best of yourself.

Arrogance believes you are better than others.

Ambition is the desire to make a difference.

Arrogance is the belief that you’re indispensable.

Ambition is doing whatever it takes to accomplish

What you know you deserve.

Arrogance is thinking that the world owes you something,

And doing what you can to take it.

Ambition is disciplined and assertive.

Arrogance is pushy.

Ambition is responsible and respectful.

Arrogance is destructive and disdainful.

- Ralph S. Marston Jr.

 

Bad things do happen;

How I respond to them defines

My character and the quality of my life.

I can choose to sit in perpetual sadness,

Immobilized by the gravity of my loss,

Or I can choose to rise from the pain and

Treasure the most precious gift I have…

Life itself.

- Walter Inglis Anderson

Without a plan,

There’s no attack.

The road may be;

For without victory,

There is no survival.

Carpe diem.

- Robin Williams

 

Success is...
Knowing your purpose in life,
Growing to reach your maximum potential,

And sowing seeds that benefit others.
- John C. Maxwell

 

It’s not human nature to be great.

It’s human nature to survive,

To be average and do what you have

To do to get by. That is normal.

When you have something good happen,

It’s the special people that can stay focused

And keep paying attention to detail,

Working to get better and not being satisfied

With what they have accomplished.

- Coach Nick Saban

Many baseball fans look upon

an umpire as a sort of necessary

evil to the luxury of baseball,

like the odor that follows an

automobile.

- Christy Mathewson

 

You play the game to win

the World Series.

Cy Young's are nice,

they really are.

They're great and I'm proud

of them...

But easily the biggest thing

I've accomplished is getting

that World Series ring.

- Greg Maddux

 

Why not chase what some see

as impossible?

Why not believe in yourself?

Why not dare to be great...

even if it means being different?"
- John Smoltz

081121 The Creed of Atheism...

Atheism’s creed is that there is no God,

Therefore no creation.

The cornerstone of this creed is evolution,

The only possible although implausible explanation

For the existence of all things.

 

Their cultic doctrine is drilled into the minds of our

Nation’s youth in our tax-supported schools from our

Universities and colleges down to the elementary

School level.

 

Was it overwhelming scientific evidence that led many to

Accept such teaching?

 

Not at all!

 

Sir Julian Huxley explained the real reason…

 

“I suppose the reason we leaped at the origin of species was

Because the idea of God interfered with our sexual mores.”

 

Read (Rom.1:18-32)

 

Dr. George Wald, a Nobel Prize winner and professor emeritus

Of biology is quoted in Scientific American…

“I do not want to believe in God. I choose to believe in that which

I know is scientifically impossible,

Spontaneous generation arising to evolution.”

 

- Ron Bartanen

Edited by H.C.

 

“When it comes to the origin of life on this earth,

There are only two possibilities creation or

Spontaneous generation (evolution).

 

There is no third way.

 

Spontaneous generation was disproved 100 years ago,

But that leads us only to one other conclusion…

That of supernatural creation.

We cannot accept that on philosophical grounds

(Personal reasons), therefore,

We choose to believe the impossible;

That life arose spontaneously by chance.”

- Dr. George Wald

Nobel prize-winning scientist from Harvard

 

Morality will be destroyed…

If there is no God, no absolute authority,

Then morality has no firm foundation.

If there is no God, there are no universal

Criteria for true and false, right and wrong.

Whatever ethics, justice, and law we develop

Are only relative to the values of those people at that time.

 

Evolution is founded on atheism…that is, life without God.

It denies that God exists or has any part at all in our world.

It teaches that we are utterly alone, struggling in the world

Where every man and woman must compete.

Hardly neutral in its implications, the concept of evolution

Has likely driven more people away from trusting God than

Any other idea.

 

“Scientists who go about teaching that evolution is a fact

Of life are great con-men, and the story they are telling May

Be the greatest hoax ever. In explaining evolution, we do not

Have one iota of fact.”

- Dr. T. N. Tahmissian

United States Atomic Energy Commission

 

- Cecil Hutson

Edited by H.C.

 

 

1 The heavens declare the glory of God;
And the firmament shows His handiwork.


2 Day unto day utters speech,
And night unto night reveals knowledge.


3 There is no speech nor language

Where their voice is not heard.


4 Their line has gone out through all the earth,
And their words to the end of the world.

 

- Psalm 19:1-4

081021 quotes

The greatest mistake we make

Is living in constant fear that

We will make one.

- John Maxwell

 

If we are growing we

Are always going to be

Outside our comfort zone.

- John Maxwell

 

If you don’t have peace,

It isn’t because someone

Took it from you;

You gave it away.

You cannot always control

What happens to you,

But you can control what

Happens in you.

- John Maxwell

Visualize this thing you want.

See it, feel it, believe in it.

Make your mental blueprint

and begin.

- Robert Collier

 

It doesn't matter if you try and try

and try again, and fail.

It does matter if you try and fail,

and fail to try again.

- Charles Kettering



Have a heart that never hardens,

a temper that never tires,

and a touch that never hurts.

- Charles Dickens

080421 quotes

Love and kindness are

Never wasted.

They always make a

Difference.

They bless the one who

Receives them,

And they bless you,

The giver.

- Barbara De Angelis

 

You and I were put on

This earth to serve something

Greater than our narrow interests.

When our focus becomes

Self-centered instead of

God-centered we lose our greatest

Source of power.

Our God-given talents are meant

To benefit others.

- Nick Vujicic

 

In a world where very few

People care if you live or die,

There is a light that shines in

The distance.

It has a name that they call

Hope and it carries with it

People that never stop caring.

- Shannon L. Alder

Down in their hearts,

Wise men know this truth…

The only way to help yourself

Is to help others.

If we wish to truly experience

A life that makes an eternal

Difference, the power within

Us is not enough.

It is the power God offers

That matters.

Believe with all your heart

That how you live your life

Makes a difference.

- Colin Brown

 

You don’t have to know a lot

Of things for your life to make

A lasting difference in the world.

Great things that matter,

Perhaps just one,

And then be willing to live for

Them and die for them.

Influenced the lives of each

Of us for good and made us

Richer than we otherwise

Would have been.

Defeat and perhaps some failure.

When defeat overtakes a man, the easiest

And most logical thing to do is to quit.

That is exactly what the majority of men do.
