More From Emmylou Harris

For years now i've kind of operated under an informal shopping cycle. a bit like a farmer's crop rotation system. except, instead of wheat, maize, barley, and fallow, mine pretty much goes clothes, makeup shoes, and clothes (i don't bother with fallow). shopping is actually very similar to farming a field. you can't keep buying the same thing, you have to have a bit of variety. otherwise you get bored and stop enjoying yourself.

Countrymen, the task ahead is great indeed, and heavy is the responsibility; and yet it is a noble and glorious challenge - a challenge which calls for the courage to dream, the courage to believe, the courage to dare, the courage to do, the courage to envision, the courage to fight, the courage to work, the courage to achieve - to achieve the highest excellencies and the fullest greatness of man. dare we ask for more in life?
Dream Believe Responsibility
Dear god," she prayed, "let me be something every minute of every hour of my life. let me be gay; let me be sad. let me be cold; let me be warm. let me be hungry...have too much to eat. let me be ragged or well dressed. let me be sincere - be deceitful. let me be truthful; let me be a liar. let me be honorable and let me sin. only let me be something every blessed minute. and when i sleep, let me dream all the time so that not one little piece of living is ever lost.
Dream Prayer Liars
You need courage to be creative. you need the courage to see things differently, courage to go against the crowd, courage to take a different approach, courage to stand alone, if you have to, courage to choose activity over inactivity.
Courage Creativity Choices
Let others lead small lives, but not you. let others argue over small things, let them complain over what might have been, but not you. let others cry over small hurts, let them be discouraged, let them be revengeful and vindictive, but not you. let others leave their future in someone else's hands, let them become materialistic and empty, but not you. let others become ungrateful and stop praying, but not you! let others give up, but not you! for you know in whom you believe and you know that he is always able. now, that's you!
Motivational Hurt Giving Up
Let us have the courage to defy the consensus, the courage to stand for principle. courage, not compromise, brings the smile of god’s approval. courage becomes a living and an attractive virtue when it is regarded not only as a willingness to die manfully, but also as a determination to live decently. a moral coward is one who is afraid to do what he thinks is right because others will disapprove or laugh. remember that all men have their fears, but those who face their fears with dignity have courage as well.

Inspirational Motivational Determination
I believe that all technological societies tend to self-destruct. the reason is that the very things that make us a successful technological society, such as our curiosity, our ambition and determination, will also cause us to fall.
