"Most of us live a cautious life on the principle of safety first; but to live the Christian life there is necessary a certain reckless willingness to adventure. If faith can see every step of the way, it is not really faith."
Wm. Barclay

J.R.R. Tolkien
"Twenty years from now, you will be more disappointed by the things you did not do than by the things you did do. So, throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover."
Samuel Clemens
"Truth is the cry of many but the game of few." --George Berkeley
"I would rather live my life as if there is a God and die to find out there isn't, than live my life as if there isn't and die to find out there is."
Albert Camus
God's gifts put man's best dreams to shame. "Hell begins on the day when God grants us a clear vision of all that we might have achieved, of all the gifts which we have wasted, of all that we might have done which we did not do" "Hold fast to dreams for if dreams die, life is a broken-winged bird that cannot fly."
Elizabeth Barrett Browning
Gian Carlo Menotti
