" Anger,
if not restrained,
is frequently more hurtful
to us
than the injury
that provokes it. "
Seneca
"We are what we pretend to be,
so we must be careful
what we pretend to be."
Kurt Vonnegut
" To me a lush carpet
of pine needles or spongy grass
is more welcome
than the most luxurious
Persian rug. "
Helen Keller

Thanks for visiting!

Anger unrestrained is indiscriminate. Anger contained is high power.
ReplyDeleteYour pics are superb!
ReplyDeleteVonnegut's seems original -- and certainly very true and wise, so I'll go for him.
ReplyDeleteThe first quote is the one which really fits my current situation.
ReplyDeleteAgner gnaws at the angry one, robbing him of serenity and love.
ReplyDeleteso agree on that first one...and thus we start wars you know....
