There are men and women who make the world better just by being the kind of people they are. They have the gift of kindness or courage or loyalty or integrity. It really matters very little whether they are behind the wheel of a truck or running a business or bringing up a family. The teach the truth by living it.

Lewis Carroll

Talent alone won’t make you a success. Neither will being in the right place at the right time, unless you are ready. The most important question is, “Are you ready?”

Johnny Carson

There is a love of wild nature in everybody, an ancient mother-love showing itself whether recognized or no, and however covered by cares or duties.

John Muir
