Evening, Wisdom and Beauty
In this world of sin and sorrow there is always something to be thankful for; as for me, I rejoice that I am not a Republican. ~H.L. Mencken
Most human beings have an almost infinite capacity for taking things for granted. ~Aldous Huxley
As we express our gratitude, we must never forget that the highest appreciation is not to utter words, but to live by them. ~John Fitzgerald Kennedy
We often take for granted the very things that most deserve our gratitude. ~Cynthia Ozick
If you haven't any charity in your heart, you have the worst kind of heart trouble. ~Bob Hope
Nobody made a greater mistake than he who did nothing because he could only do a little. ~Edmund Burke

Is there a bench around the corner in that last picture? I want to sit in that garden for a spell. Lovely.
I like the last quote best. It is very reassuring to know even if I just do a little, it counts for something! Thanks Sylvia.
; )
Do you live on the water Sylvia? Do you get a lot of summer fog?
Beautiful photos.
The first one made me laugh! That is something to be grateful for! The garden picture and the one of the orange sky are awesome!
Beautiful words of wisdom. Beautiful shots.
what reflective quotes and beautiful pictures Sylvia. i like them all.
These are fabulous quotes, Sylvia. I sure do agree that it's easy to take things for granted. It's another wake up call to enjoy the good things in the day.
I love these quotes Sylvia, and the amazing scenery--but Mencken had me ROFLMAO!!
I love stopping by and looking at the beautiful pictures with the wise and funny words.
Sylvia, these quotes are just perfect for me this morning. I loved the one about not being a Republican, especially after reading in the New York Times about the new Cheney consulting firm: http://www.nytimes.com/2009/10/14/opinion/14dowd.html?em.
Oh, my, won't they ever go away?
Mencken quote cracks me up.
Yes, I love that last photo, too. I jsut looks like the air is full of wonderful green smells!
The quotes you provide inspire me, as always. You are one inspirational Diva.
