Sojourner Posted June 27, 2006 Share Posted June 27, 2006 OK, well to be honest I've never seen this attributed to St. Joan by any reputable source ... and really I don't know where I picked it up from, but I love it and like to think it was her who said it. "I know this now. Every man gives his life for what he believes. Every woman gives her life for what she believes. Sometimes people believe in little or nothing yet they give their lives to that little or nothing. One life is all we have and we live it as we believe in living it. And then it is gone. But to sacrifice what you are and live without belief -- that's more terrible than dying." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didacus Posted June 27, 2006 Author Share Posted June 27, 2006 Joey seems to an intelligent and wise man. I've seen friends a few times but can't say I can quote anything.

Sojourner Posted June 27, 2006 Share Posted June 27, 2006 I don't know ... I must just be a little slow sometimes. And St. Joan is really great, and so was the quote, so I must have just connected the two because they're both really great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sojourner Posted June 27, 2006 Share Posted June 27, 2006 If you had a logo made of peanut butter and chocolate, I would definitely patronize you. Definitely. Even if I didn't actually need any engineering services. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
