Imagine, if you will,

 a world in which  mirrors reflect your character instead of you face.

Never sacrifice these 3 things : 

your family, 

your heart, 

your dignity. 

You CAN'T .... OR America will collapse. 

(Great prognostications in American Conservative history)

When you are dead, you don't know that you are dead. 

It's difficult only for the others. 

It is the same when you are stupid.

The difficult is what takes a little time

the IMPOSSIBLE is what takes a little longer.

(Fridrjof Nansen)

Either you run the day, or the day runs you.

  (Jim Rohn)

Every day is a new beginning. 

Stay away from what might have been

and look at what can be. 

Life is like an ocean of sand.

It will always slip through your fingers and always slip from you. 

There will, however, be a small part that stays in the palm of your hand. 

Be thankful for that.

I always wonder why birds stay in the same place 

when they can fly anywhere on the earth. 

Then I ask myself the same question.

When men are oppressed it's a tragedy.

The distance between your dreams and reality is called action.

You should sit in meditation for 20 minutes a day, 

unless you're too busy; then you should sit for an hour. 

  (Old Zen saying)

À vaincre sans péril, on triomphe sans gloire. 
  (Corneille  in le Cid)

Life is like a boxing match : 

Defeat is not declared when you fall

but when you refuse to stand again. 

There are two kinds of people : 

- those who do the work and 

- those who take the credit

Try to be in the first group, there is less competition there. 

(Indira Gandhi)

Travel makes one modest, 

you see what a tiny place you occupy in the WORLD. 

(Gustave Flaubert)

Everything we hear is an opinion not a fact.

Everything we see is a perspective not the truth. 

(Marcus Aurelius)

Your life does not get better by chance, 

it gets better by change.

Bear vient d'allumer son 1er feu de cheminée...  
Et quand je pense qu'il y a très longtemps les hommes y arrivaient avec seulement des silex :)

Au Canada, dans le Grand Nord, un bûcheron coupe son bois pour l'hiver. Après deux journées de coupe, et plusieurs stères transportées, il en vient à se demander si sa provision de bûches sera suffisante. Les hivers sont très froids, dans la région. Il va donc voir un vieux chef indien, un peu déplumé, pour savoir si l'hiver sera rigoureux. 

Il pose sa question, et le chef lui dit: - Ugh ! Hiver sera rude. 

Alors le bûcheron retourne couper du bois, encore et encore. Au bout de quelques jours de durs labeurs, il retourne voir le vieux chef et lui repose sa question. Et le chef répond: - Ugh ! Hiver sera rude, très rude ! 

Alors le bûcheron retourne bucheronner. Pendant quinze jours. Puis il retourne voir l'indien. Qui lui dit: -Ugh ! Hiver sera rude, très très très rude ! 

Alors le bûcheron demande au chef: - Mais, Grand Chef, comment peux-tu savoir cela ? Et l'indien répond: - Quand homme blanc couper beaucoup de bois, c'est que l'hiver sera rude

Vaut mieux stère, que de dire des conneries  ...

The home page of www.apple.com with Mandela ...

No one is born hating another person because of the color of his skin 

or his background or his religion. 

People learn to hate, and if they can learn to hate, they can be taught to love, for love come more naturally to the human heart than its opposite. 

   (Nelson Mandela)

Le silence est d'or

sauf quand on a des enfants... 

Quand on a des enfants le silence est SUSPECT.

It was 25 years they take that man away
Now the freedom moves in closer every day
Wipe the tears down from your saddened eyes
They say mandela's free so step outside
Oh oh oh oh mandela day
....
(Simple Minds, lyrics Mandela day)

Nelson Mandela: How do you inspire your team to do their best? 

Francois Pienaar: By example. I've always thought to lead by example, sir. 

Nelson Mandela: Well, that is right. That is exactly right. But how do we get them to be better then they think they CAN be? That is very difficult, I find. Inspiration, perhaps. How do we inspire ourselves to greatness when nothing less will do? How do we inspire everyone around us? I sometimes think it is by using the work of others. 
   (Invictus movie)

There is no passion to be found playing small - in settling for a life that is less than the one you are capable of living.

And sometime it's both
