CLARION, Pa. (EYT) – Cheryl Shellhammer, Americorps RSVP Director, is backed up with good advice in her office at the Clarion office of Community Action, Inc.

The first thing people see when they enter her office is a back wall covered with motivational quotes from a variety of authors, from Theodore Roosevelt to Walt Disney to John Lennon.

“The quotes are for me or my volunteers or for anyone who needs them,” said Cheryl.

Community Action Inc. operates Clarion-Indiana-Jefferson Americorps RSVPs.

Some of the quotes include the following:

“Great things are not done by impulse, but by a series of small things brought together; and great things are not something accidental but must certainly be willed.” Vincent van Gogh

“If you can dream it, you can do it.” Walt Disney

“I’m not telling you it is going to be easy – I’m telling you it’s going to be worth it.“ Art Williams

“Life is what happens to you while you’re busy making other plans.” John Lennon

“Each person must live their life as a model for others.” Rosa Parks

“We make a living by what we get, but we make a life by what we give!” Winston Churchill
