And writing them aloud along the shore"...E.A.Robinson
This is the true joy in life, the being used for a purpose recognized by yourself
as a great one; the being thoroughly worn out before you are thrown on the scrap
heap; the being a force of nature instead of a feverish selfish little clod of
ailments and grievances complaining that the world will not devote itself to
making you happy.
--George Bernard Shaw
The same stream of life
that runs through my veins
runs through the world
and dances in rhythmic measure.
It is the same life
that shoots in joy through the dust of the earth
into numberless blades of grass
and breaks into tumultuous waves of leaves and flowers.
It is the same life
that is rocked in the ocean cradle
of birth and death, in ebb and flow.
My limbs are made glorious
by the touch of this world of life.
and my pride
is from the life throb of ages
dancing in my blood at this moment.
...rabindranath tagors
The goal of wisdom is laughter and play - not the kind that one sees in little children who do not yet have the faculty of reason, but the kind that is developed in those who have grown mature through both time and understanding. If someone has experienced the wisdom that can only be heard from oneself, learned from oneself, and created from oneself, he does not merely participate in laughter; he becomes laughter itself. - Philo
