Favorite Quote:
|
I couldn't narrow it to just one:"Insist on yourself; never imitate. Your own gift you can present every moment with the cumulative force for a whole life's cultivation; but of the adopted talent of another you have only an extemporaneous half possession. Do that which is assigned to you, and you cannot hope too much or dare too much." Ralph Waldo Emerson
-----"If we believe a thing to be bad, and if we have a right to prevent it, it is our duty to try to prevent it and damn the consequences." Lord Milner
-----"Any excuse will serve a tyrant." Aesop
-----"You become responsible forever for what you have tamed." - Antoine de Saint-Exupery, The Little Prince
-----" I am in favor of animal rights as well as human rights. That is the way of a whole human being." - Abraham Lincoln
-----" I care not for a man's religion whose dog and cat are not the better for it." - Abraham Lincoln
.-----.. and so I whispered to the horse ...
"Do not trust any man in who's eyes you do

About Me:
|
I'm a pretty easy-going person who loves life, travel, anything and everything new and challenging, never fitting in completely and challenging the status quo. I do everything whole-heartedly and hopefully you'll get to know that personally! :)
