The Bible <BR/>is stamped with a Specialty of Origin, and an immeasurable <BR/>distance separates it from all competitors." <BR/>- W.E. Gladstone (Prime Minister) <BR/><BR/>"Whatever merit there is in anything that I have written is simply <BR/>due to the fact that when I was a chile my mother daily read me <BR/>a part of the Bible and daily made me learn a part of it by heart." <BR/>- John Ruskin (art critic and social commentator) <BR/><BR/>"The Bible has been the Magna Charta of the poor and oppressed. <BR/>The human race is not in a position to dispense with it." - Thomas <BR/>Huxley (Author & Scientist)<BR/><BR/>"The whole hope of human progress is suspended on the ever <BR/>growing influence of the Bible." - W.H. Seward (Secretary of State)<BR/><BR/>"America was born a Christian nation. America was born <BR/>to exemplify that devotion to the elements of righteousness, <BR/>which are derived from the revelations of Holy Scriptures. <BR/>Part of the destiny of Americans lies in their daily perusal <BR/>of this great book of revelations. That if they would see <BR/>America free and pure they will make their own spirits <BR/>free and pure by this baptism of the Holy Spirit."<BR/>--President Woodrow Wilson <BR/><BR/>"It cannot be emphasized too strongly or too often that this <BR/>great nation was founded, not by religionists, but by Christians; <BR/>not on religions, but on the gospel of Jesus Christ. For this <BR/>very reason peoples of other faiths have been afforded asylum, <BR/>prosperity, and freedom of worship here." <BR/>--Patrick Henry (original member of the Continental Congress)<BR/><BR/><BR/>===============<BR/><BR/><BR/> <BR/> <BR/>Take the best medicine of all for what ails you -- laughter: <BR/> <BR/>"A person without a sense of humor is like a wagon <BR/> without springs--jolted by every pebble in the road."<BR/>~Henry Ward Beecher<BR/>"Laughter is a tranquilizer with no side effects."<BR/>--Arnold Glasow<BR/>"Laughter is by definition healthy."<BR/>--Doris Lessing<BR/>"If somebody makes me laugh, I'm his slave for life."<BR/>--Bette Midler<BR/>"The human race has one really effective weapon, <BR/> and that is laughter."<BR/>--Mark Twain<BR/> "What soap is to the body, laughter is to the soul."<BR/>-- Yiddish Proverb<BR/>"Laughter is an instant vacation."<BR/>-- Milton Berle<BR/> "Laughter is the shortest distance between two people."<BR/>-- Victor Borge <BR/> <BR/>To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the<BR/>heaven: A time to be born, and a time to die; a time to plant, and a time<BR/>to pluck up that which is planted; A time to kill, and a time to heal; a<BR/>time to break down, and a time to build up; A time to weep, and a <BR/>time to laugh; a time to mourn, and a time to dance.

But small is the gate and narrow <BR/>the road that leads to life (Heaven, eternal happiness, <BR/>forever with God), and only a few find it. --Matthew 7:13-14<BR/> <BR/><BR/> <BR/> <BR/> <BR/>++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ <BR/> <BR/>The "E-Mail Newspaper" containing 'Thought & Humor' <BR/>is sent out FREE via e-mail w/o ads.
