Your quotes have already helped my day. Thanks for those and the pictures...i'm dreaming. =)
Lovely shots, Cloudia!
I wish the quote from Rosevelt could be emblazoned on the manifesto of the European Union right now. We seem to be forgetting to look after our most vulnerable. Thank you for the pics

The F.D.R. quote is very impressive.
Interesting that all seem to have been thought of only recently. Thank you for this exercise of thought. Please have a good Tuesday you all.
