Human beings are perhaps never more frightening than when they are convinced beyond doubt that they are right.: Laurens Van der Post, The Lost World of the Kalahari (1958)
My past is my wisdom to use today. . . my future is my wisdom yet to experience. Be in the present because that is where life resides.: Gene Oliver, Life and the Artistry of Change
