BELIEVE IN YOURSELF

Quotes
Nature never repeats herself, and the possibilities of one human soul will never be found in another.
Elizabeth Cady Stanton Social Activist  (1815-1902);
Even a toad has four ounces of strength.
Chinese Proverb   -
The path to our destination is not always a straight one. We go down the wrong road, we get lost, we turn back. Maybe it doesn't matter which road we embark on. Maybe what matters is that we embark.
Barbara Hall Writer, Producer  (born 1961);
Throw back the shoulders, let the heart sing, let the eyes flash, let the mind be lifted up, look upward and say to yourself ... nothing is impossible!
Norman Vincent Peale Preacher, Author  (1898-1993);
You have brains in your head. You have feet in your shoes. You can steer yourself in any direction you choose. You're on your own. And you know what you know. You are the guy who'll decide where to go.
Theodor Seuss Geisel Writer, Cartoonist, Animator  (1904-1991);

your foundation is a very good thing this country could definitely use some better values-especially now have you thought about trying to get a course in schools-or even colleges? how about a book or booklet explaining the good and bad concerning certain values honesty and responsibility should be on the top keep it up and I hope awareness of good values spread
