“We can often live our lives building ourselves to become great at doing some-thing. Leadership is found in seeing the potential in others and investing ourselves in some-one, as we go some-where, with unending hope working together. This is -where leaders rise up with connected hands; lifting one person at a time out the pits of hopelessness and onto an unshakable foundation.”
Joey Talladino
“I am responsible. Although I may not be able to prevent the worst from happening, I am responsible for my attitude toward the inevitable misfortunes that darken life. Bad things do happen; how I respond to them defines my character and the quality of my life. I can choose to sit in perpetual sadness, immobilized by the gravity of my loss, or I can choose to rise from the pain and treasure the most precious gift I have – life itself.”
Walter Anderson
“When you say a situation or a person is hopeless, you are slamming the door in the face of God.”

Clare Boothe Luce
“Government [is] operated by deeply embedded, hopelessly entangled bureaus where nothing is accomplished because the function of the bureau is to intercept every living idea and smother it.”
