Evening, Wisdom and Beauty



We are so accustomed to disguise ourselves to others that in the end we become disguised to ourselves. ~François Duc de La Rochefoucauld



Hateful to me as the gates of Hades is that man who hides one thing in his heart and speaks another. ~Homer



Never apologize for showing feeling. When you do so, you apologize for the truth. ~Benjamin Disraeli



If God had wanted me otherwise, He would have created me otherwise. ~Johann von Goethe



Wherever you go, go with all your heart. ~Confucius

The red dahlia is spectacular. Is it growing in your garden? It seems like you had a great weekend!

Christella D. Moody said...

Love your quotes. Does your site have music? I usually keep my sound off but had it on today because I was playing music. When I got to your site and the music started I thought a ghost was in my computer. Tell me that music was coming from your site. Please.

Sylvia K said...

Yes, Christella, the music is coming from my site. If you scroll down you will see it at the bottom of my blog!

Thanks for stopping by as always!

...apologize for truth. So often truth shouldn´t be said at all. The truth disrupts the natural flow of the real life of disguises.

I love the schooner! For all its elegance the ambiance is mystical.

What Can I Say?

What Can I Say?
I'm interested in almost everything. Use to like to travel, but it's too expensive now. I take Tai Chi classes, swim, volunteer in a Jump-start program for pre-schoolers. I'm an avid reader and like nearly everyone these days I follow politics avidly. I'm a former teacher and Special Projects Coordinator for a Telecommunications company, Assistant to the President of a Japanese silicon wafer manufacturing company. Am now enjoying retirement -- most of the time. I have two daughters, one son-in-law and two sons scattered all over the country. No grandchildren.
