Evening, Wisdom and Beauty



When everyone thinks alike, no one thinks very much. ~ Walter Lippmann



We don't stop playing because we grow old; We grow old because we stop playing.
~ George Bernard Shaw



If in our daily life we can smile, if we can be peaceful and happy, not only we, but everyone will profit from it. This is the most basic kind of peace work.
~ Thich Nhat Hanh



To succeed in life, you need three things: a wishbone, a backbone and a funnybone.
~ Reba McEntire



The tragedy of life is not so much what men suffer, but rather what they miss.
~ Thomas Carlyle



Life is the flower for which love is the honey. ~ Victor Hugo

    As per quote #1, I intend to keep on playing, even when my playing might look like work to someone else.
