                 Thoughts While Watching Jag Watch Legislators
I hear and I forget. I see and I remember. I do and I understand. Confucius

Liberty has never come from the government.
Liberty has always come from the subjects of government.

limitations of governmental power, not the increase of it.   Nadia Boulanger

are motivated by a deep creative urge and an inner compulsion

enthusiasm for your work, a substantial share of good health, a couple of real friends and a wife and children to share life's beauty with you. J. Kenfield Morley
