Never get used up
| lifeWhile in a client’s office, I noticed this quote:
At times our own light goes out and is rekindled by a spark from another person. Each of us has cause to think with deep gratitude of those who have lighted the flame within us.
Albert Schweitzer, German-French theologian, musician, philosopher and physician (1875-1965)
Albert Schweitzer also said, “A great secret of success is to go through life as a man who never gets used up.“
I’m going to be one of those, going through life without ever getting used up, and I’m going to spark (good) fire in as many people as I can. =)

"People, even more than things, have to be restored, renewed, revived, reclaimed, and redeemed; never throw out anyone" ~ Audrey Hepburn
(I got this quote from twitter. :))
