Is your marriage worth fighting for?
Tom Junod in Esquire:
"A fight to the finish is what finishes a marriage. That's because over the course of married life, people supply their spouses with precisely what's required to finish them off. The question is not who can win, because anyone can win if they're willing to go far enough -- if they're willing to wi...n at the cost of love and respect. The question is who can resist the temptation of winning. If your marriage is healthy, you are fighting to restore the balance of power. You are fighting to find out what's worth fighting for...and you will find out that what you are fighting for is the marriage itself. What matters most to a marriage is forgiveness, and forgiveness doesn't come free. You have to fight for it."

Noah's Ark : Everything I need to know, I learned from Noah's Ark.
ONE: Don't miss the
boat.
TWO: Remember that we are all in the same boat!
THREE: Plan ahead. It wasn't raining when Noah built the Ark .
FOUR: Stay fit. When you're 60 years old, someone may ask you to do something really big.
FIVE: Don't listen to critics; just get on with the job that needs to be done.
SIX: Build your future on high ground.
SEVEN: For safety's sake, travel in pairs.
EIGHT: Speed isn't always an advantage. The snails were on board with the cheetahs.
NINE: When you're stressed, float awhile.
TEN: Remember, the Ark was built by amateurs; the Titanic by professionals.

Church Signs #1:
"You may party in Hell, but you will be the barbecue."
"Keep using my name in vain and I'll make rush hour longer - God"
"There are some questions that cannot be answered by Google"
"Honk if you love Jesus. Text while driving if you want to meet Him"

Paradise Lost
Bertrand Russell, quoted in the Monterey County, CA Herald:
"If there were in the world today any large number of people who desired their own happiness more than they desired the unhappiness of others, we could have paradise in a few years."
