What is morally wrong can never be advantageous, even when it enables you to make some gain that you believe to be to your advantage. The mere act of believing that some wrongful course of action constitutes an advantage is pernicious.
-Marcus Tullius Cicero, statesman, orator, writer (106-43 BCE)
The shortest answer is doing the thing.
- Ernest Hemingway. American novelist and short-story writer, Won the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1954, 1899-1961
Our life always expresses the result of our dominant thoughts.
~Kierkegaard~
"Nobody's coming to get us. The secretary has promised. Everybody's promised. They've had press conferences. I'm sick of the press conferences. For God sakes, shut up and send us somebody."
- AARON F. BROUSSARD, president of Jefferson Parish in Louisiana.
