Their best illuminations come from above through the skylight.: Oliver Wendell Holmes (1809 - 1894)

Our aspirations are our possibilities.: Samuel Johnson (1709 - 1784)

Whatever you are, be a good one.: Abraham Lincoln (1809 - 1865)
Keep your eyes on the stars, and your feet on the ground.: Theodore Roosevelt (1858 - 1919)
