When Benjamin Franklin was once dining out in Paris, a good friend posed the question: “What condition of any man most deserves pity?” Each guest proposed an example. When it came Franklin’s turn, he said, “A lonesome man on a rainy day who does not know how to read.”

  1. I have really enjoyed this book Excellence by J. Pincott. Its one of those books you can read everyday and be inspired, in this case to strive for excellence.

  2. I read "How To Get Rich" by Felix Dennis over the weekend. I enjoyed the book and found his attitude to success and riches very refreshing. He tells it straight and is very honest with his thoughts in regard to the cost of becoming really really really rich. I like his attitude!
