“It is easy to love the people far away. It is not always easy to love those close to us. It is easier to give a cup of rice to relieve hunger than to relieve the loneliness and pain of someone unloved in our own home. Bring love into your home for this is where our love for each other must start.”  St. Mother Teresa

“If you are afraid of confrontation, you are not going to do very well.”

—Bill Parcells, Head Coach, New York Giants (1983-90), New England Patriots (1993-96)

“You fail all the time, but you aren’t a failure until you start blaming someone else.”

—Bum Phillips Head Coach, Houston Oilers (1975-80), New Orleans Saints (1981-85)
