How Can We Live Lifes Highest Appreciation?

From Denny: November 22nd was the anniversary of President Kennedy's assassination in 1963. Now new information is coming out - or being leaked - about who may have done the bad deed.

It does seem that when someone's life is cut short - and their promise denied - their words often take on poignant meaning. John F. Kennedy's short tenure as President may have been brief but it was long on impact with America and the world, the generation of his time. In this quote, he combines gratitude with walking the walk in Life.

Quote

* As we express our gratitude, we must never forget that the highest appreciation is not to utter words, but to live by them. ~ John Fitzgerald Kennedy

Are You Careful How You Form Your Opinions?

From Denny: This quote really sums up the problem in American politics the past decade or so - and said by an assassinated President decades before our current issues, how appropos.

You also can apply it to crank science, literature analysis and just plain gossip about your family, friends and neighbors! :)

This quote really warns about not going off "half-cocked" and becoming "a loose cannon on deck" lest you end up labeled a fool or an irresponsible flake by those around you.
