" Keep away from people
who try to belittle
your ambitions.
Small people
always do that,
but the really great
make you feel
that you, too,
can become great. "
Mark Twain
" Do not be afraid of defeat.
you are never so near victory
as when defeated
in a good cause. "

Love that quote!
Don't let anyone take your joy away!
ReplyDeleteMark Twain was a wise man! Thanks for your quotes! Thanks also for your comment on my homeward voyage on the New Amsterdam. I finally managed to put the photos on Face Book, but there are photos I want to delete and I can't do it. FB is still a more difficult medium for me than my blog.

Happy Monday. We were out walking our neighbors' dog on Saturday at about 10:00 a.m. and everything around us looked like your photos! Just that bright. Wish I'd thought to bring a camera with me.
