And I believe that, if we now want to start all over again and bear witness for Christ, there is no other possibility than to strive at being at peace with God again, before we start preaching and testifying on His behalf. We have to do penance and never say that the Church triumphed; we have all refused to serve, even I; for, those who remained Christians and defended truth with their lives, those do not bear any heads on their shoulders any more. We owe it to our Redeemer to retrace our steps; otherwise, we will find no peace, and we will go on grumbling, and there will be no testimony. - Niemoller

If I were asked to give what I consider the single most useful bit of advice for all humanity it would be this: Expect trouble as an inevitable part of life and when it comes, hold you head high, look it squarely in eye and say, 'I will be bigger than you. You cannot defeat me.'
Ann Landers Love and compassion are necessities, not luxuries. Without them humanity cannot survive.

got my forty homey?
Listen to the mustn'ts
Listen to the MUSTN'Ts, child,
Listen to the DON'TS
Listen to the SHOULDN'TS
The IMPOSSIBLES, the WON'TS
Listen to the NEVER HAVES
Then listen close to me-
Anything can happen, child,
ANYTHING can be.
Shel Silverstein
