sweetlibra Knowflake Posts: 1382 From: Registered: Oct 2004	posted July 06, 2005 07:38 AM The very first Quote which influenced me (13 yrs ago ) First they came for the Jews and I did not speak out because I was not a Jew. Then they came for the Communists and I did not speak out because I was not a Communist. Then they came for the trade unionists and I did not speak out because I was not a trade unionist. Then they came for me and there was no one left to speak out for me. - Pastor Martin Niemöller IP: Logged

pidaua Knowflake Posts: 7314 From: Schweinfurt to Grafenwoehr all within 6 months LOL Registered: May 2002	posted July 11, 2005 04:10 PM The fact that man knows right from wrong proves his intellectual superiority to other creatures; but the fact that he can do wrong proves his moral inferiority to any creature that cannot. Mark Twain... (A fellow Archer with an Aries moon) What Is Man? (1906) US humorist, novelist, short story author, & wit (1835 - 1910) Ummm..yes, I broke the rule - but this is my second favorite by Mr. Twain: Loyalty to petrified opinion never yet broke a chain or freed a human soul.

AcousticGod Knowflake Posts: 11943 From: Pleasanton, CA, USA Registered: May 2005	posted July 15, 2005 03:57 AM So, if a woman doesn't give/have sex, there's no love? Oh, I see...women have sex in hopes of love, while men give love in hopes of receiving sex. It's too bad really, isn't it? Though there are those that defy gender. IP: Logged

Wednesday Knowflake Posts: 695 From: The big C... Canada :) Registered: Jul 2006	posted September 08, 2006 03:26 PM "If you envy successful people, you create a negative force field of attraction that repels you from ever doing the things that you need to do to be successful. If you admire successful people, you create a positive force field of attraction that draws you toward becoming more and more like the kinds of people that you want to be." -- Brian Tracy "Refuse to criticize, condemn, or complain. Instead, think and talk only about the things you really want." -- Brian Tracy I shall be a dawn made of all the air I ever breathed. -- Saint Geraud To forgive heals the wound, to forget heals the scar. -- Author unknown A bird doesn't sing because it has an answer; it sings because it has a song. -- Maya Angelou IP: Logged
