A few pearls from Confucius

To put the world right in order, we must first put the nation in order; to put the nation in order, we must first put the family in order; to put the family in order, we must first cultivate our personal life; we must first set our hearts right.

With wisdom, there is no delusion, with benevolence, there is no worry, with courage, there is no fear.

The people may be made to follow, but may not be made to know

Confucius

As one who has had to put his own heart right (Alcoholism)
Bush can stand as others take pot shots at him.
The more I watch the man, the more I like him.
It take real courage to try to lead a country
When its own people will not listen
