By Barb Stutesman Regular Feature in the Gazette June 1, 2008 |
The future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams.
The world’s favorite season is spring. All things seem possible in May
If you are planning for a year, sow rice. If you are planning for a decade, plant trees. If you are planning for a lifetime, educate a person.
The real object of education is to leave a person in the condition of continually asking questions.
Every day in a life fills the whole life with expectation and memory.
Good actions give strength to ourselves and inspire good actions in others.
It isn’t the great big pleasures that count the most; it’s making a great big deal out of the little ones.
Actions speak louder than words; let your words teach and your actions speak.

Duty makes us do things well, but love makes us do them beautifully.
Every day is a little life. Live it to its fullest.
One ought, every day at least, to hear a little song, read a good poem, see a fine picture, and, if it were possible, to speak a few reasonable words.
Dedicate some of your life to others. Your dedication will not be a sacrifice. It will be an exhilarating experience, because it is an intense effort applied toward a meaningful end.
Let us not hurry so in our pace of living that we lose sight of the art of living.
How important it is to recognize and celebrate our heroes and she-roes!

Always do right. This will gratify some people and astonish the rest.
Life is a school. There is something to learn wherever we may be, wherever we go, wherever we turn.
A child has two jobs. One is just being a child. The other is growing up to be an adult.
The toe of the stargazer is often stubbed.
No one can make a real masterpiece of life until s/he sees something infinitely greater in her/his vocation than bread and butter and shelter.
Happiness lies in the joy of achievement and the thrill of creative effort.
There is no wrong time for learning.
We come, not to mourn our dead soldiers, but to praise them.
An education is not a thing one gets, but a lifelong process.
Learning is suddenly understanding something you’ve understood all your
life, but in a new way.
The main part of education is not the acquisition of facts but learning how to make facts live.
They fell, but o’er their glorious grave floats free the banner of the cause they died to save.
As long as you live, keep learning how to live.
