Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.
Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
The secret of getting ahead is getting started.
The dog that trots about finds a bone.
To be a good loser is to learn how to win.
What you do today can improve all your tomorrows.
Do not weep do not wax indignant. Understand.
The wise does at once what the fool does at last.
Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.
Always desire to learn something useful.
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.
