Notable Quotables!!!

I've got some down time today here in the little village of Sawtry, so I thought I'd throw up a post I've been wanting to do for awhile...  Here's a short list of some of the quips and quotes that I draw inspiration from... I've always been a big fan of "quotes" because I think it's never a bad thing to get a leg up from the words of someone who has come before you and accomplished great things.  I hope you can draw inspiration or encouragement from some or all of these, as I have over the years... 

Enjoi!

"To laugh often and much.  To win the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children.  To earn the appreciation of honest critics and endure the betrayal of false friends.  To appreciate beauty.  To find the best in others!  To leave the world a bit better, weather by a healthy child, a garden patch or a redeemed social condition.  To know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived... This is to have succeeded."  -Ralph Waldo Emerson
