Evening, Wisdom and Beauty



Nothing in life is to be feared. It is only to be understood.
Marie Curie



We make a living by what we get, we make a life by what we give.
Winston Churchill



How far you go in life depends on your being tender with the young, compassionate with the aged, sympathetic with the striving and tolerant of the weak and strong. Because someday in life you will have been all of these.
George Washington Carver



Life is a great big canvas, and you should throw all the paint on it you can.
Danny Kaye



Where there is love there is life.
Indira Gandhi



We must learn to live together as brothers or perish together as fools.
Martin Luther King, Jr.
