And now here is my secret, a very simple secret; it is
only with the heart that one can see rightly, what is
essential is invisible to the eye.

Living apart and at peace with myself, I came to realizemore vividly the meaning of the doctrine of acceptance. To refrain from giving advice, to refrain from meddling in the affairs of others, to refrain, even though the motives be the highest, from tampering with another's way of life - so simple, yet so difficult for an active spirit. Hands off - Henry Miller

Not every truth is the better for showing its face undisguised; and often silence is the wisest thing for a human to heed. - Pindar

All human situations have their inconveniences. We feel
those of the present but neither see nor feel those of the
future; and hence we often make troublesome changes
without amendment, and frequently for the worse.

I may have posted this before, I have been posting on this thread so long,
I don't have the time to go back and read them all, so if I blunder, please forgive...

This is worth a second post:

I will be telling this with a sigh
somewhere ages and ages hence
two roads diverged in a wood and I
I chose the road less traveled by
and that has made all the difference

If you wish in this world to advance, your merits you're
bound to enhance; You must stir it and stump it, and blow
your own trumpet, or trust me, you haven't a chance.

A thing of beauty is a joy forever: its loveliness increases; it will never pass into nothingness.

Beauty is truth, truth beauty,' - that is all ye know on earth, and all ye need to know.

I have been astonished that men could die martyrs for religion - I have shuddered at it. I shudder no more - I could be martyred for my religion - Love is my religion - I could die for that. ~John Keats

At twenty you have many desires which hide the truth, but beyond forty there are only real and fragile truths -your abilities and your failings.

An ounce of action is worth a ton of theory.

As a cure for worrying, work is better than whiskey.

As soon as there is life there is danger.

As we grow old, the beauty steals inward.

~Ralph Waldo Emerson
