In a gentle way you can shake the world.

Gandhi

If you think you are too small to make a difference, try sleeping in a room with a mosquito.

The Dalai Lama

Your time is limited, so don’t waste it living someone else’s life. Don’t be trapped by dogma — which is living with the results of other people’s thinking. Don’t let the noise of others’ opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary.

Steve Jobs

It isn’t enough to talk about peace. One must believe in it. And it isn’t enough to believe in it. One must work at it.

Eleanor Roosevelt

There is no way to peace; peace is the way.

A. J. Muste

Here’s to the crazy ones. The misfits. The rebels.The trouble-makers. The round heads in the square holes. The ones who see things differently. They’re not found of rules, and they have no respect for the status quo.You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify, or vilify them. But the only thing you can’t do is ignore them. Because they change things. They push the human race forward. And while some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius. Because the people that are crazy enough to think they can change the world… are the ones who do.

Jack Kerouac

I am always doing that which I cannot do, in order that I may learn how to do it.

Pablo Picasso

I shall pass through this world but once. Any good thing, therefore, that I can do or any kindness that I can show to any human being, let me do it now! Let me not defer or neglect it, for I shall not pass this way again.

Stephen Grellet, 1888

Hello There. Whether you meant to get here or not you have somehow managed to find my blog. This isn’t any old blog, you know. This is my attempt to document my time spent serving with the Peace Corps as an education volunteer in Namibia. There will be good stories, photos, and perhaps a short movie or two.
