QUOTE A DAY
"Words That Inspire, Provoke and Entertain"
Tuesday Dec. 4, 2007
-----------------------------------------------------------
Greetings fellow quote lovers:
I want to thank the 467 readers who sent emails to me last
week. I received many from folks who have been with me on
this rather wild journey since 1998. One particular reader,
A. Cohen started with us as an undergraduate and now is
a lawyer. He sent in this quotation:
This instrument can teach, it can illuminate; yes, and it
can even inspire. But it can do so only to the extent that
humans are determined to use it to those ends. Otherwise
it is merely wires and lights in a box. There is a great
and perhaps decisive battle to be fought against ignorance,
intolerance and indifference. This weapon of television
could be useful.
--Edward R. Murrow, speech to the Radio and Television News
Directors Association, 1958.
I have used QAD sometimes as a personal diary, sometimes
as a pulpit for politics and other times as a town square
"warner" of the evil within our government that perpetrated
9-11.
As the CEO of this company, we have had to reinvent
ourselves 4 times in 9 years to change with the nature of
the Internet. This has been difficult, but we survived and
are ready for one more climb up the mountain.

This week's edition include quotations that you readers
sent in. I could not have chosen better. Thanks to all
of you are part of the QAD experience.
Best,
JA

CBS News dug into the startling rate of suicide amongst
those who have served in Iraq. The number exceeds those

Don't look for miracles. You yourself are the miracle.
--Henry Miller (1891 - 1980)

We cannot live only for ourselves. A thousand fibers
connect us with our fellow men; and among those fibers,
as sympathetic threads, our actions run as causes, and
they come back to us as effects.
--Herman Melville,

Perhaps the secret of living well is not in having all the

clearly the way life is and accepting it and being true to
it... whatever the pain, because the pain of not being true
to it is far, far greater.
--Tom Booker in "The Horse Whisperer"
