Hi Deb,
The human journey is a quote from a book by Stephen Covey.
I don't remember the name of the book, sorry.

The other one is the voice over for commercial.
It the thing I remember from the commercial; couldn't begin to tell ya what they're selling.
(probably makes it a poor commercial, but great copy)

Bill/Deb the quote was originally from Pierre Teilhard de Chardin, a french Jesuit/Philosopher (b. 1881). His lifestory is quite a good read if you google him.


One of this other quotes, and one that closely describes what most letterheads do is-

"It is our duty as men and women to proceed as though the limits of our abilities do not exist."

" It is impossible to polish a turd " - author unknown.

The real trick is to recognize immediately just when you're dealing with a turd. Nephew Art might qualify. [Frown]

Why do I get all those on-line offers to sell me Viagara, when the only thing hardening is my arteries ?

Customer: How much are your magnets?
Me: 95 bucks for a pair.
Customer: Holy cow, that's a lot. Why so expensive?
Me: That's just how much they cost.
Customer: Ok. I need 4 of them.

My mind wanders. And that's not a good thing, 'cause it's too small to be out there alone.

I believe that unarmed truth and unconditional love will have the final word in reality. That is why right, temporarily defeated, is stronger than evil triumphant.
