    Your work is a commentary on your character.


    Joy is not what we own, it’s in what we are.

    To think too long about doing something often becomes it’s undoing.


    In the good old days, Uncle Sam lived within his income…and without most of ours.


    Worry pulls tomorrow’s cloud over today’s bright sunshine.


    The virtues of being punctual are largely offset by having to wait for people who aren’t.
