A Few Samples:

  • Frank Sinatra and Sammy Davis, Jr., were friends, but when Sammy started taking cocaine, Frank dropped him as a friend - fast. For three years, they didn't talk, but then they happened to meet again. Frank said, "Sam, I'm so f king disappointed in you, with that s t. Dump it. You're breaking your friends' hearts, Sam." Sammy replied, "I'll give it up, Frank." Then he gave it up.

  • Someone told Mother Teresa that they would not touch a leper for even a million dollars. Mother Teresa replied, "Neither would I. If it were a case of money, I would not even do it for two million. On the other hand, I do it gladly for love of God."

  • In 1948, Israel fought a war for independence, despite shortages of weapons. Sometimes, Israelites were told to pretend that they had weapons. For example, a soldier on guard duty was told to pretend that he had a gun, as no guns were available. That night, he heard someone coming toward him, and he yelled, "Stop! Or I'll shoot!" The person kept coming toward him, and when the person got close enough, the sentry saw with relief that it was another unarmed Israeli soldier. The sentry said, "Why didn't you stop? You could have gotten killed!" The other Israeli soldier replied, "You couldn't have hurt me. I'm a tank."
