Firemen posed on fire engine, New York City.

Taken in between 1908 and 1916

I quote others to better express myself

If my hands are fully occupied in holding on to something,

I can neither give nor receive.

[ A Way Out, Fort Donelson, Tennessee, February 13, 1862 ]

Happiness will never come to those

who fail to appreciate what they already have.

~ Unknown

Not what you have, but what you see;

Not what you see, but what you choose;

Not what seems fair, but what is true;

Not what you dream, but what you do;

Not what you take, but what you give;

Not as you pray, but as you live.

These are the things that mar or bless

the sum of human happiness.

What ever the mind of man can conceive
and believe, it can achieve.
~ Napoleon Hill

You cannot make yourself feel something you do not feel,

but you can make yourself do right in spite of your feelings.

~ Pearl S Buck

Hope is the golden thread that should be

woven into every experience of life.

~ Unknown

Every day do something that will inch

you closer to a better tomorrow.

~ Doug Firebaugh

Our life's a stage, a comedy.

Either learn to play and take it lightly,

or bear its troubles patiently.
