" A moment's insight

is sometimes worth

a life's experiences. "

Oliver Wendell Holmes









" I detest 

the person who hides 

one thing in the depths 

of the heart 

and yet 

speaks forth another. "

Homer








" The main things

 which seem to me important 

on their own account,

 and not merely as means

 to other things,

 are knowledge, art,

 instinctive happiness,

 and relations 

of friendship or affection. "
       
 Bertrand Russell







"Bird?!      Where What?!"

"It is one of the blessings

of old friends

that you can afford

to be 

stupid with them. "

Ralph Waldo Emerson

  7. Lots of those folks who hide one thing and speak another. What is scarier is when the ones speak what they really feel beneath and it is evil. Like Pat Robertson perhaps.
