Evening, Wisdom and Beauty

Those who deny freedom to others deserve it not for themselves. ~Abraham Lincoln



Don't ask yourself what the world needs; ask yourself what makes you come alive. And then go and do that. Because what the world needs is people who have come alive. ~Attributed to Howard Thurman



Even if you're on the right track, you'll get run over if you just sit there.
~Will Rogers



The only thing that ever sat its way to success was a hen. ~Sarah Brown



My definition of a free society is a society where it is safe to be unpopular. ~Adlai Stevenson, speech, Detroit, 1952



Freedom is the oxygen of the soul. ~Moshe Dayan



No one is free when others are oppressed. ~Author Unknown

    What a great collection today; they're all good. I need to be reminded of the Will Rogers quote MUCH more often! I do a lot of sitting-on-my-track.
