“Country music as we know it would be vastly different if it weren't for George Jones. He's in our musical DNA. All country artists will have to figure out how to even begin to live up to his kind of legacy.

“It may not be replicable: One of the hardest transition that a developing country can make is the transition to middle-class status.

“I guess it's a pretty common experience while making a movie. You have to let go of the result and just hang on to the experience and the process, where each role takes you to a different country, as it were: You're shipwrecked on this new island, you have no clothes, you have to figure out how you're going to live in this new character. All of that turns me on.” DifferentCountryCharacterCommonLetting Go Author:Sigourney Weaver

“Forgiveness to letting go of a bell rope. If you have ever seen a country church with a bell in the steeple, you will remember that to get the bell ringing you have to tug awhile. Once it has begun to ring, you merely maintain the momentum. As long as you keep pulling, the bell keeps ringing. Forgiveness is letting go of the rope. It is just that simple. But when you do so, the bell keeps ringing. Momentum is still at work. However, if you keep your hands off the rope, the bell will begin to slow and eventually stop.” IfsLongStillsCountryHandsRememberChurchSimpleLetting GoForgivenessRingsBellsPullingRopeMomentumSteeplesBells Ringing Author:Corrie Ten Boom
“I exhort you and beseech you in the bowels of Christ, faint not, weary not. There is a great necessity of heaven; ye must needs have it: all other things, as houses, lands, children, husband, friends, country, credit, health, wealth, honour, may be wanted ; but heaven is your one thing necessary, the good part that shall not be taken from you. See that you buy the field where the Pearl is; sell all and make a purchase of salvation. Think it not easy; for it is a steep ascent to eternal glory; many are lying dead by the way, that were slain with security.” ThinkingWayMayChildrenCountryLyingHouseHeavenEasyChristWealthChristianityTakenOne ThingLandSecurityFieldsHusbandLetting GoEternalGlorySellsSalvationCreditHonourWearyPearlsSteepAscentBowelsHealth Wealth Author:Samuel Rutherford
