Pope John Paul II
“The purpose of the law is not to prevent a future offense, but to punish the one actually committed”
Ayn Rand

Ralph Waldo Emerson
“Four steps to achievement: Plan purposefully. Prepare prayerfully. Proceed positively. Pursue persistently.”
William Arthur Ward
“Today's patience can transform yesterday's discouragements into tomorrow's discoveries. Today's purposes can turn yesterday's defeats into tomorrow's determination.”
“There is such a thing as perfection...and our purpose for living is to find that perfection and show it forth....Each of us is in truth an unlimited idea of freedom. Everything that limits us we have to put aside.”
Richard Bach
