I have created an excel document and am filling it with my favorite quotes. Here's a few of my favorites: We cannot defend freedom abroad by deserting it at home -Edward R. Murrow It has been my observation that most people get ahead during the time that others waste. -Henry Ford Just because you do not take an interest in politics doesn't mean politics won't take an interest in you -Pericles It is incumbent on every generation to pay its own debts as it goes. A principle which if acted on would save one-half the wars of the world. -Thomas Jefferson

I have many favorite quotes and one that comes to mind, (with tongue in cheek) My grandfather used to say, "As long as it looks good from the road!" Another of his was," If its worth doing, its worth doing well!" Lastly, another he often said, was, "It was enough to turn a dog from the gut-wagon!" These are all old sayings, which my Grandfather probably heard his from his Grandfather. When I repeat them its like reviving ancient family history. It sorta takes my back to my roots!

I like this one, from Einstein : "Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former."
