Evening, Wisdom and Beauty

The antidote for fifty enemies is one friend. ~Aristotle



In everyone's life, at some time, our inner fire goes out. It is then burst into flame by an encounter with another human being. We should all be thankful for those people who rekindle the inner spirit. ~Albert Schweitzer



A loyal friend laughs at your jokes when they're not so good, and sympathizes with your problems when they're not so bad. ~Arnold H. Glasgow



The most beautiful discovery true friends make is that they can grow separately without growing apart. ~Elisabeth Foley



A single rose can be my garden... a single friend, my world. ~Leo Buscaglia

  5. As before, your post prompted me to go down old paths. I read a short bio of Albert Scwiezer in Wikipedia. Wow! There was quite an incredible guy. It has filled my head with all kinds of ideas. Thanks for the stimulus!

  9. Love your evening wisdom. But I encounter a lot of losers in Vegas - maybe Albert Schweitzer traveled in different circles. Not that many inspiring people here.
