Favorite saying

• ""Is it possible, after all, that in spite of bricks and shaven faces, this world we live in is brimmed with wonders, and I and all mankind, beneath our garbs of common-placeness, conceal enigmas that the stars themselves, and perhaps the highest seraphim can not resolve?" Herman Melville "You cannot have a proud and chivalrous spirit if your conduct is mean and paltry; for whatever a man's actions are, such must be his spirit." Demosthenes, Third Olynthiac Greek orator & politician in Athens (384 BC - 322 BC) "The lessons this life has planted in my heart pertain more to caring than crops, more to Golden Rule than gold, more to the proper choice than to the popular choice." Kirby Larson, Hattie Big Sky, 2006 "The foolish man seeks happiness in the distance, the wise grows it under his feet." James Oppenheim"
