Safe


A
ship 
in port
is safe,
but that's not
what ships 
are built for.




I love this saying. I'm not sure who said it! Benazir Bhutto, maybe. Grace Hopper, possibly. John A. Shedd?

    Yes, it is a really good quote! We need to leave our comfort zone for the benefit of other people.

    I don't know who said this, either, but the words are so very true!

    I like this saying too. It reminds me of a Christian writer who said that a lighthouse saves by shining where it is, it does not run frantically all over looking for lives to save. Let's all shine where we live and in other places.

    A single ship in the port is a queen. ;)
