Favorite Quote:

"But Jesus called them unto him, and said, Ye know that the princes of the Gentiles exercise dominion over them, and they that are great exercise authority upon them.

  • But it shall not be so among you: but whosoever will be great among you, let him be your minister;
  • And whosoever will be chief among you, let him be your servant:
  • Even as the Son of man came not to be ministered unto, but to minister, and to give his life a ransom for many."
  • Gospel of Matthew 20:25-28

    "Criticism is something we can avoid easily by saying nothing, doing nothing, and being nothing"

  • Aristotle

    "This country was not built on the distribution of wealth, it was built on free market principles," he continued. "We don't need government handouts, we don't need a reliance on government. We need self-reliance."
