Ralph Waldo Emerson
“Finish each day and be done with it. You have done what you could. Some blunders and absurdities no doubt crept in; forget them as soon as you can. Tomorrow is a new day. You shall begin it serenely and with too high a spirit to be encumbered with your old nonsense.”
Ralph Waldo Emerson

Leland Ryken
“literature enlarges our world of experience to include both more of the physical world and things not yet imagined, giving the “actual world” a “new dimension of depth” (Lewis, Of Other Worlds 29). This makes it possible for literature to strip Christian doctrines of their “stained glass” associations and make them appear in their “real potency” (37), a possibility Lewis himself realized in the Narnia series and the space trilogy.”
Leland Ryken, The Christian Imagination: The Practice of Faith in Literature and Writing

G.K. Chesterton
“Humility is the mother of giants. One sees great things from the valley; only small things from the peak.”
G.K. Chesterton, The Innocence of Father Brown

Theodore Roosevelt
“No one cares how much you know, until they know how much you care”
Theodore Roosevelt
