"Grab it while you can â€” grab every scrap of happiness while you can"

-- Noel Coward

“I am standing on the seashore. A ship spreads her white sails to the morning breeze and starts for the ocean. I stand watching her until she fades on the horizon, and someone at my side says, She is gone. Gone where? The loss of sight is in me, not in her. Just at the moment when someone says, She is gone, there are others who are watching her coming. Other voices take up the glad shout, Here she comes! That is dying.”
“Historically, the judicial branch has often been the sole protector of the rights of minority groups against the will of the popular majority.”
“Just about ANY personality trait or skill can be learned: simply find it in someone you know and copy it. Then watch what happens.”
“Happiness is never a negative affair; it is to be won by men who are fully alive, full of the joy of living”
