Narrowing Down

This week has gone by so fast and a lot of that is due to discoveries I’ve made in the past few days. First and foremost, I seem to be narrowing down the timeframe that my Jones family moved into Tattnall County.

David Eddings
“Have you ever noticed that? We base our assessment of the intelligence of others almost entirely on how closely their thinking matches our own. I'm sure that there are people out there who violently disagree with me on most things, and I'm broad-minded enough to conceded that they might possibly not be completely idiots, but I much prefer the company of people who agree with me.

David Eddings, Belgarath the Sorcerer

“Honor is like an island, rugged and without shores; we can never reenter it once we are on the outside.”

“Keep working. Keep trying. Keep believing. You still might not make it, but at least you gave it your best shot. If you don’t have calluses on your soul, this isn’t for you. Take up knitting instead.”

David Eddings, King of the Murgos
