Quote of the Week

"Adventure is worthwhile."  - Amelia Earhart


Years ago, when I was in college, I used to put a "quote of the week" taped to my dorm room door. Some days, I would open the door to go out, only to come face to face with someone reading the quote. Years this or that quote, (which inevitably I have trouble finding) so I began to post them again.

Quote of the Week

"The secret to getting ahead is getting started."
                                                               - Sally Berger

Years ago, when I was in college, I used to put a "quote of the week" taped to my dorm room door. Some days, I would open the door to go out, only to come face to face with someone reading the quote. Years later, after the advent of e-mail, I began to put a quote of the week at the end of my e-mails, something I do to this day. I used to post these on my blog, and got away from it, but at times, people write me for this or that quote, (which inevitably I have trouble finding) so I began to post them again.

into some ideal we imagine we ought to be,
but to find out who we already are, and become it."
