A permanent library of thoughts, stories, and principles worth preserving.
Perhaps none of us is self-made. We are many-made—shaped by the kindness, honesty, and quiet efforts of others.
Leaving behind me, in every room I am given to enter, a little more sweetness than I brought—the gentle instruction of a name.

Why we buy two copies of a good book—her highlighter, my pencil—so we arrive at the same understanding together.
Friendship toward the good, delight in the virtuous, compassion for the suffering, and equanimity toward those who mean ill.
Discipline, humility, and quiet dedication gathered during decades of building a family business in earthmoving equipment.
