QUOTES

You see, it's never the environment; it's never the events of our lives, but the meaning we attach to the events, and how we interpret them that shapes who we are today and who we'll become tomorrow.

Anthony Robbins, life strategist

Lady Luck generally woos those who earnestly, enthusiastically, unremittingly woo her.

B.C. Forbes, Forbes magazine founder

Love means to love that which is unlovable, or it is no virtue at all. Forgiving means to pardon that which is unpardonable, or it is no virtue at all.

G.K. Chesterton, essayist

You can always become better.

Tiger Woods, world champion golfer

I don't believe professional athletes should be role models. I believe parents should be role models.... It's not like it was when I was growing up. My mom and my grandmother told me how it was going to be. If I didn't like it, they said, "Don't let the door hit you in the ass on your way out." Parents have to take better control.

Charles Barkley

There is no such thing as can't, only won't. If you're qualified, all it takes is a burning desire to accomplish, to make a change. Go forward, go backward. Whatever it takes! But you can't blame other people or society in general. It all comes from your mind. When we do the impossible, we realize we are special people.

Jan Ashford, Australian consultant You don't have to take life the way it comes to you. You can design your life to come to you the way you want it.

Dan Zadra, communications authority

I believe life is a series of near misses. A lot of what we ascribe to luck is not luck at all. It's seizing the day and accepting responsibility for your future. It's seeing what their people don't see and pursuing that vision.

Howard Schultz, CEO of Starbucks

The Lighter Side

Camping with Holmes and Watson

Sherlock Holmes and Doctor Watson were on a camping trip. They had gone to bed and were lying awake looking up at the sky. Holmes said: "Watson, look up. What do you see?"

"I see thousands of stars," he said. "And what does that mean to you?" Holmes continued.

"I suppose it means we will have another nice day tomorrow. What does it mean to you, Holmes?"

"To me, Watson, it means someone has stolen our tent."

Short chuckles

I put this sign on my son's room door: "Check out time is 18!"

I married my wife for her looks, but not the ones she's been giving me lately.

Home is where you can say anything you like. Nobody listens to you anyway.

Whoops...

Hospital regulations require a wheelchair for patients being discharged. But a student nurse, found one gentleman dressed and sitting on the bed. He insisted he didn't need a wheel chair.

After a chat about rules, he reluctantly let the nurse wheel him to the elevator. On the way down I asked him if his wife was meeting him.

"I don't know. She's upstairs in the bathroom changing out of her hospital gown."
