A lot of people have wondered what Ive been up to. I retired from my career after 24 years. My feeling was that it was time to play my biggest part - Myself!
Whatever things a man gives up, By those he cannot suffer pain.
Conquer with forbearance The excesses of insolence.
The ignorant torment themselves more than they do others.
As the quality of water changes with the nature of the soil;So will a man's reason vary with the quality of his friends.
When you are about to badger the weak, Then imagine yourself before a more powerful man.
To get wealth and security by guile Is like one who pours water into a pot of unbaked clay.
To think that someone we loved, trusted, opened our home to could do this to our daughter and granddaughter is beyond belief.
Some of God's noblest sons, I think, will be selected from those that know how to take wealth, with all its temptations, and maintain godliness therewith. It is hard to be a saint standing in a golden niche.
My favourite authors include Trollope and Dickens.
I'm no genius. I'm not at all; I just happen to look five or 10 years ahead and think things through.
