Marcus Tullius Cicero
“Politicians are not born; they are excreted.”
Marcus Tullius Cicero

Marcus Tullius Cicero
“Read at every wait; read at all hours; read within leisure; read in times of labor; read as one goes in; read as one goest out. The task of the educated mind is simply put: read to lead.”
Cicero

“If you have a garden and a library, you have everything you need.”
Cicero

Marcus Tullius Cicero
“Our span of life is brief, but is long enough for us to live well and honestly.”
Marcus Tullius Cicero

Theodore Roosevelt
“It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat.”
Theodore Roosevelt
