The World Outside Us
"We may privately prefer beech trees to cedars, this type of character to that, and have our private evaluations of what a worthy life really is. But these things, eminently useful as they are to us as individuals and to our necessary illusions, are of small importance to the world outside us." E.F. Sharpe
Effect
"Keep alert to the effects of distortion and circularity and use your language with precision and delicacy." - J. McCay
World Economics
"The financial problems we all face are now bigger than the U.S. government can handle. The problems have not been solved and are now becoming global problems, beyond the borders of our country and beyond the control of political leaders." - R.T. Kiyosaki
Finish
"Finish each day and be done with it. You have done what you could. Some absurdities no doubt crept in; forget them as soon as you can. Tomorrow is a new day, begin it well and serenely and with too high a spirit to be encumbered with old nonsense. This day is all that is good and fair. It is too dear, with its hopes and invitations to waste a moment on the yesterdays." - Ralph Waldo Emerson

New Day
"We really believed in our hearts that this was the dawn of the new day we had all been praying for and talking about for so many years. We were absolutely certain that we had won the first great victory of the peace - and by 'we' I mean all of us, the whole civilized human race. The Russians had proved that they could be reasonable and farseeing and there wasn't any doubt in the minds of the President or us that we could live with them and get along with them peaceably for as far into the future as any of us could imagine." - H. Hopkins
