QUOTE OF THE MONTH:

“Let your actions always speak for you, but be forever on guard against the terrible traps of false pride and conceit that can halt your progress. The next time you are tempted to boast, just place your fist in a full pale of water, and when you remove it, the hole remaining will give you a correct measure of your importance.”
Og Mandino 1923-1996
