Random Quotes and Quotations
 If one could recover the uncompromising spirit of one's youth, one's greatest indignation would be for what one has become.  I don't want to get to the end of my life and find that I lived just the length of it. I want to have lived the width of it as well. Gray hair is God's graffiti. If you wish success in life, make perseverance your bosom friend. A straight path never leads anywhere except to the objective. A high station in life is earned by the gallantry with which appalling experiences are survived with grace. Much of your pain is the bitter potion by which the physician within you heals your sick self. Faith is reason grown courageous. Practice easing your way along. Don't get het up or in a dither. Do your best; take it as it comes. You can handle anything if you think you can. Just keep your cool and your sense of humor. This is the chief thing: be not perturbed, for all things are according to the nature of the universal. Each day, and the living of it, has to be a conscious creation in which discipline and order are relieved with some play and pure foolishness. Extremes meet, and there is no better example than the naughtiness of humility. Men have a much better time of it than women. For one thing, they marry later. For another thing, they die earlier. Silently, one by one, in the infinite meadows of heaven, Blossomed the lovely stars, the forget-me-nots of the angels. The first condition of human goodness is something to love; the second, something to revere. The world is all gates, all opportunities, strings of tension waiting to be struck. When we got into office, the thing that surprised me most was to find that things were just as bad as we'd been saying they were. We should behave to our friends as we would wish our friends to behave to us. All life is the struggle, the effort to be itself. A happy life consists in tranquility of mind. - Cicero
