Coming with presidents? Here are some words for Mickeysoft from the namegiver of the Teddybear:

Quote:

“It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat.”

“It is hard to fail, but it is worse never to have tried to succeed.”

“Believe you can and you're halfway there.”

“When you're at the end of your rope, tie a knot and hold on.”

“People don't care how much you know until they know how much you care”

“The only man who never makes mistakes is the man who never does anything.”

“Nothing in the world is worth having or worth doing unless it means effort, pain, difficulty… I have never in my life envied a human being who led an easy life. I have envied a great many people who led difficult lives and led them well.”

“Knowing what's right doesn't mean much unless you do what's right.”

“Keep your eyes on the stars, and your feet on the ground.”

“If you could kick the person in the pants responsible for most of your trouble, you wouldn't sit for a month.”

“In any moment of decision, the best thing you can do is the right thing. The worst thing you can do is nothing.”

“Courage is not having the strength to go on; it is going on when you don't have the strength.”

“Far better it is to dare mighty things, to win glorious triumphs, even though checkered by failure, than to take rank with those poor spirits who neither enjoy much nor suffer much, because they live in the gray twilight that knows neither victory nor defeat.”

“Whenever you are asked if you can do a job, tell 'em, 'Certainly I can!' Then get busy and find out how to do it.”

“When you play, play hard; when you work, don't play at all.”

All by Theodore Roosevelt



He must have forseen Mickeysoft in a crystal ball Smile | :)
I have lived with several Zen masters - all of them were cats.

His last invention was an evil Lasagna. It didn't kill anyone, and it actually tasted pretty good.
