To keep our faces toward change, and behave like free spirits in the presence of fate, is strength undefeatable. ~ Helen Keller

And a few of my personal favorites:

Aaand, Shirley MacLaine :

It's useless to hold a person to anything he says while he's in love, drunk, or running for office.

The person who knows how to laugh at himself will never cease to be amused.

Dwelling on the negative simply contributes to its power.

Fear makes strangers of people who would be friends.

You know, her mother was Canadian.

I've been trying to find a quote, actually an alternate ending to Leslie Gore's song "You Don't Own Me". It sure sounds like Leslie but I hear it at one of those online radio stations that doesn't give proper credit so I can't be sure. Anyway at the end of the song the lyrics go

You don't own me and I don't own you.

I think that addition makes it a lot more powerful.

"Being powerful is like being a lady, if you have to tell people you are, you aren't."
Margaret Thatcher

That one I really like. It is more in tune with what Steve started the thread with.

Hum-m-m-m. Never heard that last quote before.

50% of the world population is male

.5% is Canadian

worth noting.

Meglio un giorno da leone che cento anni un agnello

Better one day a lion than a hundred years a lamb!

Mussolini


The above was told me by John Rocca, a contractor, who was there to hear it when it was said.
