Words are powerful. Words destroy. Words build up. Words must be acknowledged. And most of all, words can change lives.

Words are powerful. Words destroy. Words build up. Words must be acknowledged. And most of all, words can change lives. Some years ago, while on a business trip in South Africa I became very aware of various "sayings" or anecdotes. In retrospect, I know it was a "divine moment". Seemingly, everywhere I went on that trip, from bumper stickers on the back of a car, to the billboards that lined the highway, even the elevator that took me to the floor of my hotel room - sayings seemed to be everywhere I looked. Noticing that I was being led to increase my level of both listening and observation, I felt impressed to write them down as I encountered them. I did so even after my return to my home in the U.S. This is my current collection of sayings that I gathered from everywhere I've been...so far. From world leaders, to musicians, to bumper stickers, billboards and thoughts that have occurred to me over the past few years. I believe that you'll find a "spark" or two as you take this journey with me.
