Someone sent me this first quote from Clint Eastwood and it got me wanting to look for more. When I was young I loved his early westerns, now I find myself appreciating some of his accumulated wisdom and perspective. Not because it's new or novel, but because of his delivery of it. My search dug up some real nuggets. I hope you enjoy them and that they … MAKE YOUR DAY.

"It takes tremendous discipline to control the influence, the power you have over other people's lives."
"I'd like to be a bigger and more knowledgeable person 10 years from now than I am today. I think that, for all of us, as we grow older, we must discipline ourselves to continue expanding, broadening, learning, keeping our minds active and open." ~ Clint Eastwood
