A day dawns, quite like other days; in it, a single hour comes, quite like other hours; but in that day and in that hour the chance of a lifetime faces us.

WTG david! i liked the biggie quote--sometimes there's no other words that ring so true than from our modern day prophets, and society dismisses rap as ignorant! i'm not a huge rap fan, but you must give some of the artists props for their insights...yes, they are as quotable as THEY like to quote winston churchill.

Look to this day
For it is life, the very life of life...
In its brief course
Lie all the verities and realities of your existence
The Bliss of growth,
The Glory of action;
The Splendor or achievement
For yesterday is but a dream,
And tomorrow is only a vision;
But today, well lived, makes every yesterday a
Dream of happiness and every tomorrow a vision of
Hope. Look well, therefore, to this day

Onward and Upward!

To live in the presence of great truths and eternal laws, to be led by permanent ideals - that is what keeps a man patient when the world ignores him, and calm and unspoiled when the world praises him.
