“The elevator to success is out of order. You’ll have to use the stairs…. One step at a time.”

--Anon.

Dwight D. Eisenhower

Freedom has its life in the hearts, the actions, the spirit of men and so it must be daily earned and refreshed - else like a flower cut from its life-giving roots, it will wither and die. 

 ~Dwight D. Eisenhower

Lloyd Alexander

“Life's a forge -

Yes, and hammer and anvil, too. You'll

be roasted, smelted, and pounded, and

you'll scarce know what's happening to

you. But stand proudly to it. Metal's

worthless till it is shaped and

tempered. More labor than luck. Face

the pounding, don't fear the proving;

and you'll stand well against any

hammer and anvil.”

― Lloyd Alexander
