This article may serve as a motivational or inspirational force for the year 2020.  Maybe it will be taken up as part of  a New Year’s resolution to live by.  Read it now and every four months and see if it has moved you, brings back some nostalgia or is  “plain ole horse sense”.  They are listed in no special order but numbers so you can pick out your favorites.

  20. The only man who never makes mistakes is the man who never does anything. Teddy Roosevelt
  21. What we’ve got here is a failure to communicate. Movie – Cool Hand Luke
  22. Live simply, love generously, care deeply, speak kindly, leave the rest to God. Ronald Reagan
  23. Stay away from negative people, they have a problem for every solution.
