    Famous quotes by John Holt:

    "He has accepted that he may well have been less forthright in his comments if he had been aware."
    "if I'd have tripped, I wouldn't have made it."
    "If you look at them the wrong way, they'll pull a gun on you. So now is the time to stay cool."
    "No use to shout at them to pay attention. If the situations, the materials, the problems before the child do not interest him, his attention will slip off to what does interest him, and no amount of exhortation of threats will bring it back."
    "Since we can't know what knowledge will be most needed in the future, it is senseless to try to teach it in advance. Instead, we should try to turn out people who love learning so much and learn so well that they will be able to learn whatever needs to be learned."
    "People should be free to find or make for themselves the kinds of educational experience they want their children to have."
    "You know what you want and you go in and get it. If you need more time, explanation, help with your financial goals, these smaller banks can help you, but they may not be able to offer the Wal-Mart pricing."
    "The Internet search engines are becoming a crucial way for dealers to connect with in-market car buyers. That's why we felt it was important to sponsor this market research. We're delighted to share these results with the auto industry, to help promote greater awareness of an exciting new Internet advertising medium."
    "We are committed to helping automotive dealer customers create and convert more opportunities using Cobalt solutions."
    "I think we very well may take it public again in 2007. We're going to make sure we explore every nook and cranny of America's economic landscape."

    Alfie

    by: John Holt

    What's it all about, Alfie?
    Is it just for the moment we live?
    What's it all about, when we sort it out, Alfie?
    Are we meant to take more than we give?
    Or are we meant to be kind?
    If only fools are kind, Alfie,
    Then I guess, it is wise to be cruel.
    And if life belongs, only to the strong, Alfie,
    What will you lend on an old golden rule?
    As sure as I believe, there's a heaven above, Alfie.
    I know there's something much more,
    Something even non-believers, can believe in.
    I believe in love, Alfie.
    Without true love you just exist, Alfie,
    Until you find the love you've missed, you're nothing.
    Alfie..
    When you walk, let your heart lead the way,
    And you'll find love any day.
    Alfie.. hmm.. Alfie.
    (..)
    I believe in love, Alfie.
    Without true love you just exist, Alfie,
    Until you find the love you've missed, you're nothing.
    Alfie..
    When you walk, let your heart lead the way,
    And you'll find love any day.
