QUOTES
When you develop yourself to the point where your belief in yourself is so strong that you know you can accomplish anything you put yourself into, your future will be unlimited.
Brian Tracy
Living consciously involves being genuine. It involves listening and responding to others honestly and openly. It involves being in the moment.
Sidney Poitier
Three grand essentials to happiness in this life are something to do, something to love, and something to hope for.
Joseph Addison
It's been my observation that most people get ahead during the time that others waste.
Henry Ford
Whatever course you decide upon, there is always someone to tell you that you are wrong. There are always difficulties arising which tempt you to believe that your critics are right. To map out a course of action and follow it to an end requires courage.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
In order to be irreplaceable, one must always be different.
Coco Chanel
Our personal consumer choices have ecological, social and spiritual consequences. It is time to re-examine some of the deeply held notions that underlie our lifestyles.
David Suzuki
People often say that motivation doesn't last. Well, neither does bathing. That's why we recommend it daily.

The Lighter Side 25 Gallons of Milk
An attractive blonde heard that milk baths would make her beautiful. She went to the grocery store and asked the manager to find 25 gallons of whole milk.
The manager felt there must be a mistake, "You mean 2.5 gallons of whole milk?"
The blonde replied, "No, I want 25 gallons. I'm going to fill my bathtub and take a milk bath so I can look young and beautiful again."
"OK," he said, "But do you want it pasteurized?"
"No, just up to my neck. I can splash it on my eyes."
The Sign
A boss was complaining in a staff meeting the other day that he wasn't getting any respect. Later that morning he went to a local sign shop and bought a small sign that read, "I'm the Boss". He then taped it to his office door.
Later that day when he returned from lunch, he found that someone had taped a note to the sign that said. "Your wife called, she wants her sign back!"
High Blood Pressure
When a physician remarked on a new patient's extraordinarily ruddy complexion, he said, "High blood pressure, Doc. It comes from my family."
"Your mother's side or your father's?" the doctor asked.
"Neither, it's from my wife's family."
"Oh, come now," the doctor said. "How could high blood pressure come from your wife's family?"
The man sighed. "You oughta meet 'em sometime, Doc!"
