Yet most people take for granted this unique, irreplaceable, and necessary resource." (Peter Drucker) "The meaning of things lies not in the things themselves but in our attitude toward them." (Antoine de Saint-Exupery) "If you don't like something, change it. If you can't change it, change your attitude." (Maya Angelou) LAUGH, SMILE, ENJOY "A computer once beat me at chess, but it was no match for me at kick boxing." (Emo Philips) "My doctor told me that jogging could add years to my life. He was right. I feel ten years older already." (Milton Berle) "The taxpayer -- that's someone who works for the federal government but doesn't have to take the civil service examination."
