If a business is not ethical, it will fail, perhaps not right away but eventually.

Happiness pursued eludes, happiness given returns.

Surprising and interesting things happen to those who keep their eyes and their minds open and alert!

We hope that there will be nothing that conflicts with anybody's religion or faith. We would never say a person's religion is not effective.
