Top 10 Best Quotes
“what we remember depends upon what we believe—the human mind is not an objective recorder of information . . .” ~ MJ Brogan, Sins Not Forgotten”
“I’ll let you know when we’re done.”
“the question is not whether you are in danger, it’s whether you choose to worry about it. It’s like swimming in the sea where there are sharks. You know they’re there, but your choice is whether you allow your fear of them to stop you from ever going in. Sure, you take precautions, and you don’t swim when there’s a sighting, but you also don’t let it stop you from reaching your goal, or the shore on the other side.”
“the human mind is not an objective recorder of information . . .”
“Nothing could hold back time or tide, or weather, or what was going to come out of this now . . .”

“Charles Dickens once said that “Home” is simply a name, a word, but it’s a strong one; stronger than any magician ever spoke, or spirit ever answered to, in the strongest conjuration.

“But her so-called self-indulgence, her cutting everyone out of her life, had been an act of survival, not the act of a victim.”
“But her so-called self-indulgence, her cutting everyone out of her life, had been an act of survival, not the act of a victim. It took courage. Not cowardice.”
“About serving your country. You’re a hero—people all over the nation, and right here in Shelter Bay, can sleep safe in their houses because the enemies are being kept at bay.”
