To know oneself, one should assert oneself.
The wise does at once what the fool does at last.
Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.
Go for it now. The future is promised to no one.
Who seeks shall find.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
If you've got a talent, protect it.
Problems are not stop signs, they are guidelines.
Be kind whenever possible. It is always possible.
Do not weep do not wax indignant. Understand.
I supported my friend Congressman Shuler over former Speaker Nancy Pelosi during our party's leadership elections in November citing a need for new leadership.
