Boldness has genius, power and magic in it.
Begin it now." – Goethe

just step it up a notch" – Julia Butterfly Hill

"A key is just a bunch of little angles, in the right
combination" – JP Warren

nothing because they thought they could only do a little."

culture is created by a few people who are not afraid
to be insecure" – Rudolf Bahro

"Make no little plans; they have no magic to stir people's
blood and probably themselves will not be realized.
Make big plans; aim high in hope and work, remembering
that a noble, logical diagram once recorded will never die,

itself with ever-growing insistency. Remember that your
children and grandchildren are going to do things that would
stagger us." – Attributed to Daniel H. Burnham, 1910.
Slightly modified by Jone Johnson Lewis.

"The future will be what you contribute to and create."
– Greg, Camp Counselor
