Evening, Wisdom and Beauty



The only gift is a portion of thyself. ~Ralph Waldo Emerson



A hug is a great gift - one size fits all, and it's easy to exchange. ~Author Unknown



The branches of a tree that are supple and able to bend with the wind are able to survive, while those that are rigid snap, though often they initially appear the strongest. ~ Lee Jampolsky



Politicians are like diapers. They both need changing regularly and for the same reason. ~Author Unknown



Some people, no matter how old they get, never lose their beauty - they merely move it from their faces into their hearts. ~Martin Buxbaum



Everything has beauty, but not everyone sees it. ~Confucius

  3. That was so cruel against politicians.:-) I´m so familiar with diapers that I don´t want to compare them to any people. Diapers do not = people or even politicians.
