Quotes of the day

These quotes convey the thoughts and feelings that I have been having this morning about the deployment of many of our comrades and friends, on my part of helping those left behind get through the deployment and how I feel as an American.

Hope is the thing with feathers
That perches in the soul.
And sings the tune
Without the words,
and never stops at all.
Emily Dickinson (1830 - 1886)


Guard well within yourself that treasure, kindness. Know how to give without hesitation, how to lose without regret, how to acquire without meanness.
George Sand (1804 - 1876)



No act of kindness, no matter how small, is ever wasted.
Aesop (620 BC - 560 BC)


And so, my fellow Americans: ask not what your country can do for you - ask what you can do for your country. My fellow citizens of the world: ask not what America will do for you, but what together we can do for the freedom of man.
John F. Kennedy (1917 - 1963), Inaugural address, January 20, 1961
