Tacitus

Thomas Paine
"There is no joy in life like the joy of sharing."
Billy Graham

Oprah Winfrey

Carl Jung
"I hope I shall possess firmness and virtue enough to maintain what I consider the most enviable of all titles, the character of an honest man."
George Washington
"Live so that you wouldn't be ashamed to sell the family parrot to the town gossip."
Will Rogers

Joseph Addison
"Moderation is a virtue only in those who are thought to have an alternative."
