Clinton Legion Marching
Band will "pipe" the
P
dill" Ponder
assed on to me
"Many people will walk in and out of
your life, but only true friends will leave
footprints in your heart.
To handle yourself, use your head; to
handle others, use your heart.
Anger is only one letter short of danger.
Great minds discuss ideas; Average minds
discuss events; Small minds discuss people.
God gives every bird its food, but he does not
throw it into its nest.
He who loses money, loses much; He who loses a
friend, loses more; He who loses faith, loses all.
Beautiful young people are acts of nature, but
beautiful old people are works of art.
Learn from the mistakes of others. You can't live
long enough to make them all yourself.
The tongue weighs practically nothing, but so few
people can hold it."
Rev. Vernon:
Dean
