Results from Poor Man's College:

I despise making the most of one's time. Half of the pleasures of life consist of the opportunities one has neglected.: Oliver Wendell Holmes Jr. (1841 - 1935)
To us, the moment 8:17 A.M. means something - something very important, if it happens to be the starting time of our daily train. To our ancestors, such an odd eccentric instant was without significance - did not even exist. In inventing the locomotive, Watt and Stevenson were part inventors of time.: Aldous Huxley (1894 - 1963)
It has been my observation that most people get ahead during the time that others waste.: Henry Ford (1863 - 1947)
Most of us think ourselves as standing wearily and helplessly at the center of a circle bristling with tasks, burdens, problems, annoyance, and responsibilities which are rushing in upon us. At every moment we have a dozen different things to do, a dozen problems to solve, a dozen strains to endure. We see ourselves as overdriven, overburdened, overtired. This is a common mental picture and it is totally false. No one of us, however crowded his life, has such an existence. What is the true picture of your life? Imagine that there is an hour glass on your desk. Connecting the bowl at the top with the bowl at the bottom is a tube so thin that only one grain of sand can pass through it at a time. That is the true picture of your life, even on a super busy day, The crowded hours come to you always one moment at a time. That is the only way they can come. The day may bring many tasks, many problems, strains, but invariably they come in single file. You want to gain emotional poise? Remember the hourglass, the grains of sand dropping one by one.: James Gordon Gilkey
We never shall have any more time we have, and we have always had, all the time there is.: Dr. Thomas Arnold Bennett
Think highly of yourself, for the world takes you at your own estimate.: Author Unknown
No one can disgrace us but ourselves.: Josh Billings (1818 - 1885)
Every human being, of whatever origin, of whatever station, deserves respect. We must each respect others even as we respect ourselves.: U Thant
Creation is a better means of self-expression than possession; it is through creating, not possessing, that life is revealed.: Vida D. Scudder
The confidence which we have in ourselves gives birth to much of that which we have in others.: Francois De La Rochefoucauld (1613 - 1680)
