A wise person speaks carefully and with truth, for every word that passes between one's teeth is meant for something.
~ Molefi Kete Asante (1834 - 1902)

1. God wants spiritual fruit, not religious nuts.

11. Blessed are the flexible, for they shall not be bent out of shape.
12. The most important things in our homes are the people.

seek require courage and risk-taking. Learn from the turtle -- it only makes progress
when it sticks out its neck.

what you really are, while your reputation is merely what others think you are.
