3 Presidents And A Comedian
THREE PRESIDENTS AND A COMEDIAN “Fix reason firmly in her seat, and call to her tribunal every fact, every opinion. Question with boldness even the existence of a God; because, if there be one, he must more approve of the homage of reason, than that of blindfolded fear.” Thomas Jefferson
“It’s just a ride. We can change it any time we want. It's just a choice. No effort, no work, no job, no savings of money--a choice, right now, between fear and love. The eyes of fear want you to put bigger locks on your door, buy guns, close yourself off. The eyes of love instead see all of us as one. Here’s what we can do to make this world a better ride. Take all the money we spend on weapons every year and use it to feed and clothe the poor of the world. There will be enough to help every person in the world, not one left out—and we can explore space, both inner and outer, together, in peace.” Bill Hicks
“All my life I have tried to pluck a thistle and plant a flower wherever the flower would grow in thought and mind.” Abraham Lincoln
“It is not the critic who counts: Not the man who points out that the strong man stumbles or where the deed could have been done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is covered with dust and blood and sweat, who strives valiantly, Who errs and comes up short again and again; Because there is not effort without errors and shortcomings; But who actually strives to do the deed; who knows great enthusiasm, the great devotion, who spends himself in a worthy cause, who at the best knows in the end the accomplishment of high achievement and who at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly. So that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who know neither victory or defeat.” Teddy Roosevelt
