Quotations

TALENT is the capacity of doing anything that depends on application and industry;it is a voluntary power while genius is involuntary. W.Hazlitt
TIME is a dressmaker.Specialising in alterations. Faith Baldwin
TRADITION is an important help to history, but its statement should be carefully scrutinized before we rely on them. Joseph Edison
WISDOM is only found in truth.J.W.Goethe
WORLD - This world is a dream within a dream;and as we grow older,each step is an awakening. The youth awakes,as he thinks,from childhood;the full grown man despises the persuits of youth as visionary; and the old man looks on manhood as feverish dream.Death the last sleep? NO! it is the last and final awakening. Walter Scott


That concludes my book. Will find something else now.
