"If you can't look at yourself in the mirror tomorrow, don't do it today."

"Accept."

Both came from my father, the wisest man I ever knew.

For God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten son that whosoever believes should not perish but have eternal life.

I like this quote because it is the crux of existence.

In reading this forum over the past year it seems many of you Villagers have done just that - with an active senior lifestyle involving many activities and interests. That's what I want for my wife and I, whether it be at the Villages or somewhere else. We are two weeks away from a lifestyle preview visit where we'll hopefully get a feel for whether the Villages is for us.

Don't know who authored this quote, but all I have to say is God Bless our military personnel and their families for their service to our great country!!!

"Hey, that's not fair, I don't have a favorite quote!"

That's my favorite quote. It was once said by a famous man who didn't have a favorite quote. I don't remember his name.

"Bad news ages poorly." Common quote by my Manager in the Aircraft Engine business. Whether budget, schedule, or incident, communicate the news quickly.

"You can get a lot further with a kind word and a gun than with just a kind word alone." --Al Capone

This sat unobtrusively in a frame on the desk of Lt. Mike Torello (Dennis Farina) in the TV show Crime Story. I always liked it & put it on the door to my office.
