Post 5.3

Here's your daily dose:
  1. I never learned to drive.
  2. Win as if you were used to it, lose as if you enjoyed it for a change.
  3. Talent is cheaper than table salt. What separates the talented individual from the successful one is a lot of hard work.
  4. Always do sober what you said you'd do drunk. That will teach you to keep your mouth shut.
  5. And my concern, David, is several.

Post 5.2

Here's your daily dose:
  1. I'm so tired of this war. It doesn't matter who's right or who's wrong. Sometimes, you just have to do what you're told.
  2. Courage is as often the outcome of despair as of hope; in the one case, we have nothing to lose, in the other, everything to gain.
  3. God is cruel. Sometimes, he makes you live.
  4. All things truly wicked start from innocence.
  5. More seldom than not, the movies gives us exquisite sex and wholesome violence, that underscores are values. Every two child did. I will.

Post 5.1

Haven't seen any comments about my posting my own quote. Shameless, I know. I'd probably do it more if I had anything important to say. Heck, even the important stuff I say isn't worthy of Posterity. Anyway, thanks for sticking around through yet another week. I fully intend to annotate the previous weeks, but I'll not promise you anymore...I'm trying to cut down on broken promises, and not making them in the first place seems a great way to start. Here's your daily dose:
  1. Some things are true whether you believe them or not.
  2. Winning is not a sometime thing. You don't win once in a while. You don't do things right once in a while. You do them right all the time. Winning is a habit. Unfortunately, so is losing.
  3. When the night has come, and the land is dark, and the moon is the only light we'll see, no I won't be afraid just as long as you stand by me.
  4. Courage is grace under pressure.
  5. More than two decades later, it's hard to imagine the Revolutionary War coming out any other way.

Post 4.6

Here's your daily dose:
  1. Never fear spoiling children by making them too happy. Happiness is the atmosphere in which all good affections grow.
  2. Always acknowledge a fault. This will throw those in authority off their guard and give you an opportunity to commit more.
  3. That is why Christians are told not to judge. We judge others by their external actions; God judges them by their moral choices.
  4. I don't believe I'll ever get credit for anything I do in foreign affairs, no matter how successful it is, because I didn't go to Harvard.
  5. Come get some.
