    Quote: Thomas Huxley
    "Perhaps the most valuable result of all education is the ability to make yourself do the thing you have to do when it ought to be done, whether you like it or not; It is the first lesson that ought to be learned; However early a man's training begins, it is probably the last lesson that he learns thoroughly."

    Quote: Alfred North Whitehead (1861-1947)

    "I have suffered a great deal from writers who have quoted this or that sentence of mine either out of its context or in juxtaposition to some incongruous matter which quite distorted my meaning, or destroyed it altogether."

    Be Thankful

    By: Unknown

    Be thankful that you don't already have everything you desire.
    If you did, what would there be to look forward to?
    Be thankful when you don't know something,
    For it gives you the opportunity to learn.

    Be thankful for the difficult times. During those times you grow.
    Be thankful for your limitations,
    Because they give you opportunities for improvement.
    Be thankful for each newchallenge,
    Because it will build your strength and character.

    Be thankful for your mistakes.
    They will teach you valuable lessons.
    Be thankful when you're tired and weary,
    Because it means you've made an effort.

    It's easy to be thankful for the good things.
    A life of rich fulfillment comes to those who are also thankful for the setbacks.
    Gratitude can turn a negative into a positive.
    Find a way to be thankful for your troubles, and they can become your blessings

    For I will take you out by the hand
    And lead you to the hunter
    And I will show you thunder and steel
    And I will be your teacher
    And we will dress in helmet and sword
    And dip our tongues in slaughter
    And we will sing a warrior’s song
    And lift the praise of murder
    And Christ will be our darling
    And fear will be our name

    Master Kahn: Look at the world you live in, and this pool of fish. There are 12 fish, 12 worlds.

    Kwai Chang Cain: But only one pool.

    Master Kahn: Many. The one you see, and the world of each [fish]. The world you live in is mysterious, exciting, unknown. And mine is older, familiar, and calm. You will never know my world, or I yours.

    Kwai Chang Cain: Never?

    Master Kahn: Can you see with my eyes? Think with my brain?

    Kwai Chang Cain: But master, you are one with the universe. So am I.

    Master Kahn: We are one. Yet we are not the same. Ten million living things have as many different worlds. Do not see yourself as the center of the universe: Wise and good and beautiful. Seek rather wisdom, goodness, and beauty. That you may honor them everywhere.
