“…encourage the young men to be self-controlled. In everything set them an example by doing what is good. In your teaching show integrity, seriousness, and soundness of speech that cannot be condemned, so that those who oppose you may be ashamed because they have nothing bad to say about us.”

Titus 2:6-8



Man, there are quite a few Pop Warner coaches I would like to beat soundly over the head with this one...
"Beware of the man who works hard to learn something, learns it, and finds himself no wiser than before... He is full of murderous resentment of people who are ignorant without having come by their ignorance the hard way."

Kurt Vonnegut


Hmmm... have to think about this one -- "murderous resentment?" -- but did pick up Best American Nonrequired Reading 2008 and found a whole chapter on cool Vonnegut quotes...
