VISION
The Future Belongs To Those Who Believe In The Beauty Of Their Dreams
Eleanor Roosevelt
With a good conscience,
Our only sure reward,
With history the final judge of our deeds,
Let us go forth to lead the land we love,
Asking His blessing and His help,
But knowing that here on earth God's work
Must truly be our own.
J.F.K.
Wisdom is an inner knowing that cannot be traded, sold or stolen from you.
Knowing is truth that has been experienced in your life.
Remember that the gift of wisdom is in the heart of he who receives it and remains alive
as long as it is honored as a blessing.
Native American, Traditional
EL DUENDE
Es un poder y no un obrar
Es un luchar y no un pensar
F.G. Lorca
