    About this ebook

    This ebook is about certainty and uncertainty. Certainty is perfect knowledge that has total security from error, or the mental state of being without doubt. Uncertainty is the situation of unknown future. In the world we live in, some would say, the only thing that is certain is uncertainty. The quotations in this ebook have come from a myriad of sources. They have been collected over a period of many years. They have come from magazines, catalogs, newspapers, friends and relatives and many other sources.

      Biography:

      In this edition, I thought it would be appropriate to include a biography. I have always loved quotations and have tried to live by them. This, of course, includes The Bible as well. We live in a world where so many bad things happen, I would prefer to uplift people rather than tear them down Anyway, I am a veteran of the accounting and computer professions. My father told me to enter it many years ago and you will never be out of work. He was right! He also said, the U.S. economy is rapidly becoming a service economy where products will be made somewhere else. This was a man with a 6th grade education who worked for United States Steel Corporation for 42 years. He was an auto mechanic, plumber and carpenter. He could handle just about anything mechanical. Well, after 30 years in the professions I decided to open my own practice. Sounds easy! Just remember, you have to be willing to work 80 hours a week for yourself so you won’t have to work 40 hours a week for someone else. I have been married for 15 years to Jennifer. We have 2 children, Michael and Gracie. Michael is a computer technician and Gracie is a dentist assistant. All proceeds from the sale of this book will go to help the poor. This will help people get back on their feet again. More to Follow.

      Enjoy and God Bless.

      Tom
