December Quotes

"A calm person is not one that is devoid of problems, but rather one that accepts them and is confident in his/her ability to handle them."

"To silence a voice that rings loudly is pointless; it shall ring on, to soon take residence in the hearts and minds of those that can harmonize with it."

"Strength of character is the fortitude it takes to stand against the gales of life."

"One of our greatest follies is to attempt to define greatness; to be great is to have no definition at all."

"To protect and to defend are two different things...the country that so confuses or even convolutes the two will be doomed to have a misguided military and will forever contribute to the greatest evil in the world: the notion of strength as a means of power, fear as influence, violence as a quietus."


"Somewhere out there, far beyond society and understanding, lying at the end of an expedition that is all too demanding, is greatness. Forged of unwavering tenacity and adversity infernal, the path is not to be sought; it is internal. It is not a destination, but instead a home; reserved for those that exceed the world's expectations while meeting their own."



-A. Lewis
