Just or fun some quote and thoughts, printed on the vertical margins of the August/September OUR IOWA magazine:

"Some folks are so busy laying up for a rainy day

that they cannot enjoy good weather."

*

"Ability is important,

but dependability is critical."

*

"When the root is deep,

there is no reason to fear the wind."

~ Chinese proverb

*

"There is no such thing as hugging a child too much."

*

"Experience is a wonderful thing.

It enables you to recognize a mistake when you make it again."

*

"The highest reward for a person's toil is not what they get for it,

but what they become by it."

*

"In a world where you can be anything,

be kind."

*

"The intelligent person is one who has successfully fulfilled many accomplishments,

and is willing to learn more."
