President's Moment

In celebration of President's Day, here are two quotes that are classics worth remembering.

First, Benjamin Franklin. "Those who would give up essential Liberty to purchase a little, temporary safety, deserve neither Liberty or Safety". A thought to keep in mind through these times when our leaders are debating the Patriot Act and terrorism in general.

Second, Martin Van Buren. "It is easier to do the job right, than to explain why you didn't'. A saying all of us would do well to remember in our daily lives.

Enough said. Hope your President's Day is fullfilling and uplifting.

Hi Mary Ann -- What fun to read a year (almost)of thoughts from you ---much education, warm feelings, thought stimuli, good advice, and contact with you, however circuitous!!
No comment on Pres moment .. good quotes from pres's all year .. would that our bushy could even remotely understand them!! Way too much to expect incorporation into governing policy or even acknowledgement of their legitimacy as a way of life!!
We are looking forward to the Olive trip!! The website is great .. and the owner is a real MODEL (like you) for living fully!! Keep us posted! Our next trip is to Mexico March 28-June 11.. so those days are out for us. Hope that doesn't botch plans in any way!! Love you dearly, wonderful MaCarr!! Sara and Carl
