This is my fourth book of quotations: hence, Year Four. The quotations in this book, as were in the first three books, contain quotations drawn from many sources. Although this is the fourth book of quotations from me, this is not a series of books; each book stands on its own. Again; as in the previous books, most of them are from me. Over the years, my wife and I counseled numerous individuals while in the military. Many of the quotations that we coined were authored and used to aid in the task of guiding our clientele to make the correct decisions. The eclectic method of counseling we used worked very well when used in conjunction with some of the catchy wording and phraseology contained in many of the quotations contained in this book.
There are also other quotations from various sources such as show business personalities, to adventurers, to national and world leaders, to just plain old folks; and even the Holy Bible. I hope that you enjoy reading them and that they bring you some support and comfort as you navigate through life.
One quotation contained in this book is from day 2:
“The young see life as a sprint, as one age we realize that life is a marathon.”
Elgin J. Dobbins
Another quotation contained in this book is from day 48:
“If I must boast, I will boast of the things that show my weakness.”
2 Corinthians 11:30, N.I.V.
Another quotation from the book is from day 82:
“When you grow older, you learn to believe in lots of things you can’t see.”
From the 1948 movie
“Portrait of Jennie”
