George Foreman
So many of us have loved ones and people we really care about, and the only time we show affection is when they are gone. I have preached at funerals, and you see loved ones who didnt even say hello to dear ones when they were alive. Give them hugs, kisses while they are alive and need it.
George Foreman
The Rope a Dope would not have existed without the Big Dope.
George Foreman
Without appreciation and respect for other people, true leadership becomes ineffective, if not impossible.
