Evening Words, Wisdom and Beauty



The possession of knowledge does not kill the sense of wonder and mystery. There is always more mystery.
Anais Nin



Don't part with your illusions. When they are gone you may still exist, but you have ceased to live.
Mark Twain


The role of a writer is not to say what we all can say, but what we are unable to say.
Anais Nin


He who controls others may be powerful, but he who has mastered himself is mightier still.
Lao Tzu




No one saves us but ourselves. No one can and no one may. We ourselves must walk the path.
Buddha
