You do not need to leave your room. Remain sitting at your table and listen. Do not even listen, simply wait, be quiet still and solitary. The world will freely offer itself to you to be unmasked, it has no choice, it will roll in ecstasy at your feet. Franz Kafka

Happiness is a choice that requires effort at times. Aeschylus

When I was young, I cared about the glory and admiration that comes because of the victory. Now that I am older, and know better, I just care about the victory.

The best thing to hold onto in life is each other. Audrey Hepburn

Love is friendship that has caught fire. It is quiet understanding, mutual confidence, sharing and forgiving. It is loyalty through good and bad times. It settles for less than perfection and makes allowances for human weaknesses. Ann Landers
