History, Honesty and Hope


-History is a selective interpretation of events designed to justify those currently in power. Memory is the same thing on an individual scale.

-History is a set of lies agreed upon by the victors.

-History repeats itself, but each time the price goes up.

-Hoffer's law: When people are free to do what they want they usually imitate one another.

-Holding on to a hurt creates more hurt.

-Hollywood's a place where they'll pay you a thousand dollars for a kiss, and fifty cents for your soul. (Marilyn Monroe)

-Honest criticism is hard to take, particularly from a relative, a friend, an acquaintance, or a stranger. (Franklin P. Jones)

-Hope for the best, prepare for the worst.

-Hope is not the conviction that something will turn out well but the certainty that something makes sense, regardless of how it turns out. (Vaclav Havel)

-Hope is the ability to hear the music of the future.
Faith is having the courage to dance to it today.

-Hospital is a place where they wake you up to give you a sleeping pill.

-Hospitality is making your guests feel at home -- even when you wish they were.

-Hot heads and cold hearts never solved anything.

-Housework is something you do that nobody notices until you don't do it.

-How far you go in life is determined by how tender you are with the young, compassionate with the aged, sympathetic with those striving, and tolerant with the weak and strong, because some day in life you will have been all of them.

-How long a minute is depends on what side of the bathroom door you're on.

-How many of you believe in telekinesis? Raise MY hand!

-How would you like to spend eternity: Smoking or Non-Smoking?

-Hugs are not measured by quantity; they are measured by quality.

-Humans are interesting creatures, when given everything they need, they can't live through hardships.But when given very little they surpass every hardship.

-Humans are like tea bags. They never realize their strength until they are put in hot water.

-Human things must be known to be loved: but Divine things must be loved to be known.

-Humor to a man is like a feather pillow. It is filled with what is easy to get but gives great comfort.

-Hurt leads to bitterness, bitterness to anger, travel too far that road and the way is lost.(Terry Brooks)

-Hurt people hurt people. Whole people heal people.

-If you MUST speed on the highway, sing these hymns loudly:
at 45 mph.... "God Will Take Care of Me"
at 55 mph.... "Guide me, O Great Jehovah"
at 65 mph.... "Nearer My God to Thee"
at 75 mph.... "Nearer Still Nearer"
at 85 mph.... "This World is Not My Home"
at 95 mph.... "Lord, I'm Coming Home"
at 100 mph.... "Precious Memories"
