    Wise words

    A trait of highly successful people is ‘never being satisfied’
    "A pessimist sees the difficulty in every opportunity, an optimist sees the opportunity in every difficulty” ---Sir Winston Churchill
    "Political extremism involves two prime ingredients: an excessively simple diagnosis of the world's ills, and a conviction that there are identifiable villains back of it all." ---John W. Gardner

    What's wrong with that? Throw a bag in the truck and hit the road, stop and see what you want.

    Plot a circuitous route from one Rats house to the next.. pull up with an empty fuel tank.. the host Rat will be glad to buy you fuel to make it to the next house.. trust me, after a few daze is he will buy you fuel, lots of fuel..

    And one of the best words of advice is “if offered a breath mint, take it”…. The more that you think about it, the more the symbolism/ application..
