Ann Landers
“Don't let nobody overshadow your greatness, for you were intrusted with this task! So, protect it with your life if you must!”
Philip T. M.

Richard 'Grimesy' Grimes
“If You feel hollow, let Me be the one, who fills You up with Love. Let Me free the butterflies within. Just open Your heart, and let Me in.”
“Great spirits have always encountered violent opposition from mediocre minds.”
Albert Einstein
“Difficulty, my brethren, is the nurse of greatness -- a harsh nurse, who roughly rocks her foster-children into strength and athletic proportion. The mind grappling with great aims and wrestling with mighty ingredients, grows, by certain necessity, to their stature. Scarce anything so convinces me of the capacity of the human intellect for indefinite expansion in the different stages of its being, as this power of enlarging itself to the compass of surrounding emergencies.”
William Cullen Bryant
“You may encounter many defeats, but you must not be defeated. Please remember that your difficulties do not define you. They simply strengthen your ability to overcome.”
Maya Angelou
