Pithy sayings - 6

A friend is one who knows us, but loves us anyway.

The only love worthy of a name is unconditional.

Never worry about numbers. Help one person at a time, and always start with the person nearest you.

Talk sense to a fool and he calls you foolish.

Whenever you are confronted with an opponent, conquer him with love.

According to the latest official figures, 43% of all statistics are totally worthless.

Never deprive someone of hope -- it may be all they have.

If you judge people, you have no time to love them.

Why, they couldn't hit a barn at this dist

The longer I live, the more I realize the impact of attitude on life. Attitude to me is more important than facts. It is more important than the past, than education, than money, than circumstances, than failures, than successes, than what other people think or say or do. It is more important than appearance, giftedness, or skill. It will make or break a company...a church...a home. The remarkable thing is you have a choice every day regarding the attitude you will embrace for that day. We cannot change our past...we cannot change the fact that people will act in a certain way. We cannot change the inevitable. The only thing we can do is play on the one string we have, and that is our attitude. I am convinced that life is ten percent what happens to me and ninety percent how I react to it. And so it is with you. You are in charge of your attitude. (Charles R. Swindoll)
