What is life?
It is a flash of a firefly in the night.
It is the breath of a buffalo in wintertime.
It is the little shadow which runs across the grass and loses itself in the sunset.

- Crowfoot, last words, 1890.

" Young buck the difference between a hustla and a sucker is a hustla takes his time. He makes you think every brilliant thought is yours. He makes you think you runnin' shit and when he leaves with your shit you think you gave it to him of your own free will. So when you see him again you smile and say what up."

"Life is a game of cards. The hand you are dealt is determinism; the way you play it is free will." -Nehru


Do justly, now. Love mercy, now. Walk humbly, now. You are not obligated to complete the work, but neither are you free to abandon it.
If you miss me at the back of the bus
You can't find me nowhere
Come on over to the front of the bus
I'll be riding up there
-Seeger

Don't Talk. DONATE!

Nothing in the world can take the place of persistence.
Talent will not;
Nothing is more common than unsuccessful men with talent...
Education alone will not;
The world is full of educated derelicts.
Persistence and determination alone are omni-potent.

I'm sure this has already been posted, but ...

quote:
Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It is not just in some of us; it is in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.


There is controversy as to the originator.
