“Concerning all acts of initiative and creation,
there is one elementary truth-that the moment one
definitely commits oneself, then
Providence moves, too.”

 ~ W. H. Murray

“To serve is beautiful,
but only if it is done
with joy and a
whole heart.”

~ Pearl S. Buck

“At first people refuse to believe that a strange new thing can be done.
Then they begin to hope it can be done.
Then they see it can be done.
Then it is done and all the world wonders why it was not done centuries ago.”

COLLABORATION OPPORTUNITIES

“We must not, in trying to think about how we can make a difference,
ignore the small daily differences we can make which, over time,
add up to big differences that we often cannot foresee.”
