This is not really a quote but it's my favorite poem of all time.
Found on the wall in a San Quentin prison cell by an inmate on death row. He wasn't the original author of it though..

"When you get what you want in your struggle for self
And the world makes you king for a day,
Just go to a mirror and look at yourself,
And see what that man has to say.

For it isn't your father or mother or wife,
Who judgment upon you must pass;
The fellow whose verdict counts most in your life
Is the one starring back from the glass.

He's the fellow to please, never mind all the rest.
For he's with you clear up to the end,
And you've passed the most dangerous, difficult test
If the man in the glass is your friend.

You may be like Jack Horner and "chisel" a plum,
And think you're a wonderful guy,
But the man in the glass says you're only a bum
If you can't look him straight in the eye.

You may fool the whole world down the pathway of years.
And get pats on the back as you pass,
But your final reward will be the heartaches and tears
If you've cheated the man in the glass."

That reminds me of a poem I saw, of all places, on a jackup barge in the Perisan Gulf one time. It reminds me of the saying "The cemetary is full of indespensable people".

"There Is No Indispensable Man"
Saxon N. White Kessinger ©1959

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Sometime when you're feeling important;
Sometime when your ego's in bloom
Sometime when you take it for granted
You're the best qualified in the room,

Sometime when you feel that your going
Would leave an unfillable hole,
Just follow these simple instructions
And see how they humble your soul;

Take a bucket and fill it with water,
Put your hand in it up to the wrist,
Pull it out and the hole that's remaining
Is a measure of how you will be missed.

You can splash all you wish when you enter,
You may stir up the water galore,
But stop and you'll find that in no time
It looks quite the same as before.

The moral of this quaint example
Is do just the best that you can,
Be proud of yourself but remember,
There's no indispensable man.

Daily Quote:

When a man you like switches from what he said a year ago, or 4 years ago, he is a broad-minded person who has courage enough to change his mind with changing conditions. When a man you don't like does it, he is a liar who has broken his promises.

- Franklin P. Adams

Question For Your Heart:

Are you bold enough to change your mind with changing conditions?

Daily Quote:

It is important to realize that that which we are seeking is already there. It is our own right, it is our own nature. It has become obscured by the clouds, and all we are doing is rediscovering that. We don’t have to go anywhere. We just have to come back to our true nature.

- Francis C. Roles

Question For Your Heart:

Are you still seeking outside?

I've actually found some great value in these quotes which is why I've allowed them to continue to be posted, with the links.

Notice how "value" can even cause the rules to be bent. :)
