Time is a companion that goes with us on the journey, reminding us to treasure the moments for they may never come again.

Jean Luc Picard, Star Trek Generations




Be creative with today's solutions without creating tomorrow's problems




THE GENIUS OF IMAGINATION:

Imagination is more important than knowledge... knowledge is limited, but imagination encircles the world. To see with one's own eyes, to feel and judge without succumbing to the suggestive power of the fashion of the day, to be able to express what one has seen and felt in a trim sentence or even in a cunningly wrought word... is that not glorious? When I examine myself and my methods of thought, I come close to the conclusion that the gift of imagination has meant more to me than my talent for absorbing absolute knowledge.

Albert Einstein




There is no doubt that a single creative thought has the power to change the world.




Life is the future, not the past. The past can teach us, through experience, how to accomplish things in the future, comfort us with cherished memories, and provide the foundation of what has already been accomplished.

But only the future holds life. To live in the past is to embrace what is dead. To live life to its fullest, each day must be created anew. >P> As rational, thinking beings, we must use our intellect, not a blind devotion to what has come before, to make rational choices.

Richard Rahl, The Sword of Truth by Terry Goodkind




Stay open and challenge your assumptions.

Lama Surya Das




Choose not the life of immitation.

Red Hot Chiller Peppers




A thousand candles can be lit from one candle, however the life of the original candle is not shortended in the least.

The Dalai Lama




Often silence speaks louder than any words ever could.




You have to wonder at times what you're doing out there. Over the years, I've given myself a thousand reasons to keep running, but it always comes back to where it started. It comes down to self-satisfaction and a sense of achievement.

Steve Prefontaine




The man who knows how will always have a job, but the man that knows why will always be that man's boss.




Don't be in a hurry. You have a whole lifetime ahead of you.




Answers only arouse more questions.




The power to change our destinies lie within ourselves.




My philosophy is that not only are you responsible for your life, but doing the best at this moment puts you in the best place for the next moment.

Oprah Winfrey




Heights of great people
reached and kept,
Were not attained by
sudden flight.
But they, while their
companions slept,
Were toiling onward
through the night.

Calculus Teacher's blackboard




Winners are winners because they do what losers don't want to do.




Education is a great equalizer of the conditions of men - the balance wheel of the social machinery.

Horace Mann, 1848




Just because you make new friends doesn't mean you have to erase old ones.




The art of progress is to preserve order admist change and to preserve change admist order.

Alfred North Whitehead
