QUOTABLE QUOTES

From the poem "Outwitted by Edwin Markham

"He drew a circle that shut me out-

Heretic rebel, a thing to flout.

But love and I had the wit to win:We drew a rcle and took him In!"

Submtted by Mrs. Harper who admonishes us that

Our goal s to encompass people where they are and

come alongside them in frendship, genune concern

and n Chrstan ove for who they are, so that over

tme we earn ther respect and can nfluence them

wth who we are and what we beeve"

THE MAN IN THE ARENA

It s not the crtc who counts; not the man who pontsout how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer

of deeds could have done them better The credt

beongs to the man who s actualy n the arena

whose face s marred by dust and sweat and bood

who strves vaiantly who errs, who comes shor agan

and agan, because there is no efort wthout error

and shorcoming but who does actuay strive to do

the deeds who knows great enthusasms the great

devotons who spends himself n a wothy cause who

at the best knows n the end the triumph of hgh

achevement and who at the worst f he fals at least

fals whie darng greatly, so that his place shall neverbe wth those cold and tmd sous who nether now

vctory nor defeat - heodore Roosevet

Excerpt fom the speech Ctzenshp n A Republc

THE GOD OF SMALL THNGS

My God is the God of small thngs
