Scot McKnightWe are called upon to obey and follow our Lord the Christ, but it is not because of any fear of Him or of the consequences if we did not follow; it is the love of Christ which constraineth us, as we are told in the Epistle for the first Sunday of Lend.

Charles Webster LeadbeaterThe definition of success changes. Success is to live your life with integrity and not give in to peer pressure to be something you're not.

Walter Dean MyersThe ones I loved fly as birds in the open sky above me. Soaring, weaving, calling to me to join them.

Most of all, you have to learn how to follow your curiosity more than your fear.
Elizabeth GilbertOnce you understand that everybody's going to get connected, a lot of things follow from that.

So not only is everybody consuming, they can also produce.

Just have something in there.
