"If I had eight hours to chop down a tree, I'd spend six sharpening my axe." Abraham Lincoln Awesome! One of my favourites:- “If someone has a gun and is trying to kill you, it would be reasonable to shoot back with your own gun.” Origins: In May 2001 Tenzin Gyatso, the 14th and current Dalai Lama (the head monk of the Gelugpa lineage of Tibetan Buddhism), made a three-day visit to Portland, Oregon, during which he gave a talk to 7,600 area high school students in what was billed by organizers as the “Educating the Heart Summit.” As reported by the Seattle Times, during that talk the Dalai Lama responded to a question posed by a student about how to react to a potential school shooter by stating that it would “be reasonable to shoot back with your own gun,” |

If you're prepared, a hurricane is just a storm.
In preparing for battle I have always found that plans are useless, but planning is indispensable. --Dwight D. Eisenhower

-- Bishop Keith B. McMullin, (Ensign, Nov. 2002, p 96)
Do not rely on the government for anything, especially your survival.

Prepare for the unknown by studying how others in the past have coped with the unforeseeable and the unpredictable.
-- George S. Patton

That's a startling quote that should motivate any prepper to build a pantry worthy of withstanding control.

Expect the best. Prepare for the worst. Capitalize on what comes.
Zig Ziglar
If we are wise, let us prepare for the worst.
George Washington
Be a balanced optimist. Nobody is suggesting that you become an oblivious Pollyanna, pretending that nothing bad can or ever will happen. Doing so can lead to poor decisions and invites people to take advantage of you. Instead, be a rational optimist who takes the good with the bad, in hopes of the good ultimately outweighing the bad, and with the understanding that being pessimistic about everything accomplishes nothing. Prepare for the worst but hope for the best - the former makes you sensible, and the latter makes you an optimist.
Dale Carnegie
Expect the best, plan for the worst, and prepare to be surprised.
Denis Waitley

First ask yourself: What is the worst that can happen? Then prepare to accept it. Then proceed to improve on the worst.
Dale Carnegie
Wisdom prepares for the worst, but folly leaves the worst for the day when it comes.
Richard Cecil
If you learn from defeat, you haven't really lost.
Zig Ziglar
Think of life as a giant, fat cat you're in charge of. Sometimes you can control it, but other times, it's going to do what it wants and you have to roll with it. And sometimes you can do everything - everything you're s'posed to do- and it'll still shred all the things you hold dear... The only thing you can really do with life is rub its belly and prepare for the worst.
R. K. Milholland

We cannot stop natural disasters but we can arm ourselves with knowledge: so many lives wouldn't have to be lost if there was enough disaster preparedness.
Petra Nemcova
Preparedness, when properly pursued, is a way of life, not a sudden, spectacular program.
Spencer W. Kimball
The time will come that gold will hold no comparison in value to a bushel of wheat.
Brigham Young
The counsel to have a year's supply of basic food, clothing, and commodities was given fifty years ago and has been repeated many times since. Every father and mother are the family's store keepers. They should store whatever their own family would like to have in the case of an emergency...store a year's supply...that might keep us form starving in case of emergency.
James E. Faust
Circumstances can force your hand. So think ahead!
Robert A. Heinlein

Before anything else, preparation is the key to success.
Alexander Graham Bell
Success depends upon previous preparation, and without such preparation there is sure to be failure.
Confucius
A goal without a plan is just a wish.
Larry Elder
There are some people who live in a dream world, and there are some who face reality; and then there are those who turn one into the other.
Douglas Everett
Few people have any next, they live from hand to mouth without a plan, and are always at the end of their line.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
It is better to be prepared for an opportunity and not have one than to have an opportunity and not be prepared.
Whitney M. Young
The best preparation for good work tomorrow is to do good work today.
Elbert Hubbard
Be Prepared... the meaning of the motto is that a scout must prepare himself by previous thinking out and practicing how to act on any accident or emergency so that he is never taken by surprise.

Preparation through education is less costly than learning through tragedy.
It is easier to prepare and prevent,than it is to repair and repent.
expect the worst.hope for the best.and capitalize on each situation the best you can..
Everyone deserves the chance to survive. in which,I think of this every time I see,or hear of another disaster. on account There are probably people dying,or doing without,who don’t have to.
prepping is Common sense. on account it takes common sense to prepare for what ever life throws at you.
Lord, grant me the serenity to accept stupid people the way they are, the courage to maintain my self-control and the wisdom to know that if I act on it, I will go to jail.
