I am looking for the book and page number – in the original source – where I can find the following quotes. Somehow I lost them. Usually I do a pretty good job of recording my readings and my citations; I have a system. Given my loss of the citations I feel less confident that I have associated the quote with the correct person… to my ear the quotes sound like people I’ve listed… who knows maybe I didn’t even get the quote right… anyway, if you recognize any of these and can help me out, I’d be more than grateful.
Peace, dwight
