(Ken Blanchard)
Our most important thoughts are those which contradict our emotions
(Paul Valery)
We live in the world, but we must not let the world live in us.

It takes courage to grow up and turn out to be who you really are
(e.e. cummings)
With most men, unbelief in one thing springs from blind belief in another.
(Georg Christoph Lichtenberg)
I have had so many great moments, but I would have to say that dancing the Swan in 'Swan Lake' was such a unique and passionate experience for me. It was such bloody hard work, even at that very early age, that I would not want to try to replicate it again now.
(William Kempe)
I realized that Eastern thought had somewhat more compassion for all living things. Man was a form of life that in another reincarnation might possibly be a horsefly or a bird of paradise or a deer. So a man of such a faith, looking at animals, might be looking at old friends or ancestors. In the East the wilderness has no evil connotation; it is thought of as an expression of the unity and harmony of the universe.
(William O. Douglas)
At trail's end no fertile valleys, no gold mines, no thriving ports are reached. The Pacific Crest Trail, like the other National Scenic Trails, is not a corridor to an economic end but rather is a process for individual change and growth. Although the trail's end is a desirable goal, it is not a necessary one, for the traveler is enriched in a nonmaterial sense with every step he takes along the way.
(Jeffrey Schaffer and Drs. Bev & Fred Hartline)
