And I know for sure that in the final analysis of our lives- when the to-do lists are no more, when the frenzy is finished, when our e-mail inboxes are empty- the only thing that will have any lasting value is whether we've loved others and whether they've loved us.”
Oprah Winfrey

Abraham Lincoln

“If I cannot do great things, I can do small things in a great way”
