GIVING UP

Let me now turn to the giving up of personality traits, well-established patterns of behavior, ideologies, and even whole life styles. These are major forms of giving up that are required if one is to travel very far on the journey of life.

-M. Scott Peck, from The Road Less Traveled

"Achievement requires more than a vision - it takes courage, resolve and tenacity." -- Neil Eskelin

"In the depths of winter I finally learned there was in me an invincible summer." -- Albert Camus
