I have posted several (or at least two) Good Earth Tea quote posts in the past. Yesterday I was cleaning off my dresser drawer and found a handful of Good Earth Tea tags and decided I would compile them all for one post.
The tea tags were collected over time, so I'm not on a "tea buzz" or anything like that. Once I get the post written, then I can recycle the tags. ☺
Quotes:
"Success is to be measured not so much by the position that one has reached in life as by the obstacles which he has overcome." Booker T. Washington 1856-1915
"The only way to fail at something is to fail to learn from the experience." Mary Jane Nirenberg
"If you want to make peace, you don't talk to your friends. You talk to your enemies." Moshe Dayan 1915-1981
"The first and great commandment is: Don't let them scare you." Elmer Davis 1890-1958
"Make all you can, save all you can, give all you can." John Wesley 1703-1791
"Unless you believe, you will not understand." Saint Augustine 354 AD-430 AD

Success, obstacles, failure, experience, peace, commandment, make, save, give, believe.... all good topics for reflection. From a tea bag tag!
There were three authors I didn't know, so I looked them up:
Mary Jane Nirenberg-- Though I found two "Mary Nirenberg" listings on Linked In, I don't know if either is "this" Mary Jane Nirenberg. Both were professional business women.
Moshe Dayan-- An Israeli military warrior who became a spokesperson for peace. Jewish Virtual Library Information. Encyclopedia Britannica.
Elmer Davis-- News writer and radio commentator. Infoplease. Encyclopedia Britannica.
I don't know if any of the above quotes will speak to you today or not, but maybe one of them will. If not the quotes, then maybe something you learn about the author.
Enjoy a good cup of tea somewhere along your journey,
Debra
