OUR CORE VALUES
"When we build let us think we build forever. Let it not be for present delight nor for present use alone. Let it be such work that our descendants will thank us for, and let us think, as we lay stone upon stone, that a time is to come when these stones will be held sacred because our hands have touched them, and that men will say, as they look upon the labor and wrought substance of them, 'See! This our fathers did for us'."
John Ruskin
"Our character is what we do when we think no one is looking."
H. Jackson Brown, Jr.
"Progress is impossible without change, and those who cannot change their minds cannot change anything."
George Bernard Shaw
"Success is not final, failure is not fatal; it is the courage to continue that counts."
Winston Churchill
"It's not the size of the dog in the fight, it's the size of the fight in the dog."
Mark Twain
"As a member of Loan Committee, I have seen good financing opportunities get turned down, and mediocre financing opportunities get approved. The difference is the loan officer’s preparation; due diligence, financial analysis and the presentation."
JB Kieswetter
“More than three thousand years ago a man named Job complained to God about all his troubles
and the Bible tells us that God answered";
‘Do you give the horse its strength or clothe its neck with a flowing mane? Do you make him leap like a locust, striking terror with his proud snorting? He paused fiercely, rejoicing in his strength and charges into the fray. He laughs at fear, afraid of nothing, He does not shy away from the sword. The quiver rattles against his side, along with the flashing spear and lance. In frenzied excitement he eats up the ground. He cannot stand still when the trumpet sounds.’
Job 39:19-25
"This is about life being ahead of you and you run at it!
Because you never know how far you can run unless you run."
Penny Chenery Tweedy
American Sportswoman who bred and raced Secretariat, the 1973 Triple Crown winner
