My personal philosophy and work ethics can be explained as:

Notable aphorisms: "See what you want to see and nothing more"​ - my own quote regarding editing the television appearances of my favorite singer, actor and actress onto VHS tapes; and the paraphrased quote "Say what you mean and mean what you say"​ from Lewis Carroll's "Alice In Wonderland."​

Childhood idioms to have in mind when confronted with political correctness or brats:
"Sticks and stones may break my bones, but names/words will never hurt me."​; "I'm rubber, you're glue, whatever you say bounce off me and sticks to you.”

Workplace quotes for inspiration: "Perseverance is the hard work you do after you get tired of doing the hard work you already did."​~Newt Gingrich; "Don't be afraid to give your best to what seemingly are small jobs. Every time you conquer one it makes you that much stronger. If you do the little jobs well, the big ones will tend to take care of themselves."​~Dale Carnegie

Americana quotes: United We Stand: "America was not built on fear. America was built on courage, on imagination and an unbeatable determination to do the job at hand."​~Harry S Truman; "Concentrated power has always been the enemy of liberty."~Ronald Reagan
