Apt words for those who, despite insurmountable odds, endeavor in noble pursuits. Whose reward, though it may not lie in victory, must pay due regard to those elements of character which belie a righteous resolve and willingness to struggle in the face of overwhelming adversity.

Where does evil lie? If not the heart then some inscrutable place that bears silent witness to everything we aren't but wish to be.

Convenience and expediency are things you sell and should never become the basis for what you do.

In an existence rife with disappointment, happiness must seem a fabled luxury, relegated to a distant past in the envelope of youth where obligation is an undiscovered theme and need exists in its pristine state, devoid of any attachment. If distance lends perspective, happiness will forever remain a legacy whose true value may only be appreciated in contrast to our misery.

If those for whom mediocrity is an accepted condition; who are inclined to prequalify defeat and failure as a forgone conclusion, are ever to win, it will be because better men dragged them kicking and screaming across the finish line.

Our desire to effect the necessary change is not without merit, it is without recourse.

Whether it is 1725 or 2025 there are two distinct classes of business interest. Those that provide services for profit and those that plunder for profit. One sees a customer, the other a mark. One is sustainable, the other ends at the end of a rope.

We will always fail in our efforts to escape the ravages of history for it is written in our own hand.

A hallmark of any organization whether it be family, a corporation or even a nation is that a preponderance of rules in general denotes a lack of principle in particular. Conversely and unfortunately those lacking in principle have little use for rules.

Long past is the purview of measured discourse. Civility must, of necessity, yield to passions rougher embrace.

In the absence of proactive measures to abjure the foreseen, to mitigate any risk thereof, actions become reactionary at best, and matters that should lie within the realm of great certainty instead assume the guise of crisis.

We all possess an inherent amount of faith, we trust we are who we say we are and that things are, after a fashion, the way we expect them to be. An expectation that forms the baseline which allows us to interface and function within the bounds of what we, as individuals, consider the norms of rational existence. That is until circumstance erodes the illusion which forms the bulwark between what is rational and irrational. Chaos then needs little justification or provocation.

Excellence is no accolade to be obtained in and of itself but rather the hallmark and herald of those committed to its ideal.

Adversity has a way of bringing everything into focus. A way of distilling what matters from the detritus of our everyday lives.

What of life? Life is the imposition of will, with any extent directives or tendencies dependent upon ones lineage, whether of the pack or the herd.

I espouse no particular care for nature scenes with manmade structures, though I must admit some small indulgence in nostalgia at the thought that someone, with nature, shared this time and space and perhaps each became a part of the other

What must be acknowledged is that even the detritus of a failed system is fertile ground and the expectations that formed such flawed constructs will bloom frivolously within that context.

No institution can exist that purportedly upholds the rule of law by breaking it. No institution that has become the prime offender of citizens rights can claim to protect them. Experience has shown that governments are not immune to corruption and therefore are bound by necessity, when required, to reformation. Prudence dictates corruption abrogates the ability for self correction and so remedy must be accomplished through external means.

Hope is a vain indulgence, it clouds judgement and champions inaction. Belief wedded to action needs only resolve and commitment.

Some seek to control others, some seek to control themselves whilst others seek to control their environment. A fool engages in one, a wise man two but a truly enlightened man masters all three.

When investiture in a lie is so great that truth becomes destructive to ones ends, the inherent liabilities in the use of force become its underlying justification.
