It is twice blessed; It blesseth him that gives, and him that takes. ‘Tis mightiest in the mightiest; it becomes The throned monarch better than his crown; * * * * * It is enthroned in the hearts of kings; It is an attribute to God himself. – William Shakespeare

Embrace what he is doing in and through your life. – Kurt W. Bubna

They’re just not the whole truth, because we know that most of the people we encounter day-to-day couldn’t handle the truth (or perhaps we couldn’t handle giving it to them). – Paul Asay
