Enjoy!
1."Up to a point a man's life is shaped by environment, heredity, and movements and changes in the world about him. Then there comes a time when it lies within his grasp to shape the clay of his life into the sort of thing he wishes to be.

--Louis L'Amour
2."Sometimes the poorest man leaves his children the richest inheritance."
--Ruth E. Renkel

--Harmon Killebrew
4."It doesn't matter who my father was; it matters who I remember he was."
--Anne Sexton

--Sarah Orne Jewett
