• Quotation:

On the 11th November 2000 my dear friend Roberta Cousins, who is a missionary in Uganda, gave me a journal in which to make notes. In the forthcoming weeks I will share some of the quotes that I committed to the journal.

People do not care how much you know until they know how much you care
