Strength And Weakness

Posted in Philosophy, Quotes, tagged , , , , , , , , on March 5, 2024| 2 Comments »

I am sure those of you who have sons feel the same way, but there is something about daughters and their fathers.  And I was thinking, I would want my daughters to know how much I love them, but I would also want them to know that being a strong man includes being kind.  That there is nothing weak about kindness and compassion.  There is nothing weak about looking out for others.  There is nothing weak about being honorable.  You are not a sucker to have integrity and to treat others with respect.
    ––     President Barack Obama

Hi Princess,
Here’s three quotes for you:
I have been complimented many times and they always embarrass me;  I always feel that they have not said enough.
    ―    Mark Twain
From a speech given on 23 September 1907
[A good day!    —    kmab]
Ten people who speak make more noise than ten thousand who are silent.
    ―    Napoléon Bonaparte
[Be heard!    —    kmab]
Live everyday as if it were your last because someday you’re going to be right.
    ―    Muhammad Ali
[Make every day count…     —    kmab]
Happy Birthday!
We love you always,
Mum and Dad
