John Wooden

Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
He's my friend that speaks well of me behind my back.
Thomas Fuller
Do not dismayed daughters at the number of things which you have to consider before setting out on this divine journey which is the royal road to heaven. By taking this road we gain such precious treasures that it is no wonder if the cost seems to us a high one. The time will come when we shall realize that all we have paid has been nothing at all by comparison with the greatness of our prizes.
Saint Teresa of Avila
The people will save their government if the government itself will allow them.
Abraham Lincoln
Circumstances give in reality to every political principle its distinguishing color and discriminating effect. The circumstances are what render every civil and political scheme beneficial or noxious to mankind.
Edmund Burke
We gain strength and courage and confidence by each experience in which we really stop to look fear in the face... we must do that which we think we cannot.
Eleanor Roosevelt
Do not waste your time on Social Questions. What is the matter with the poor is Poverty, what is the matter with the rich is Uselessness.
George Bernard Shaw
