never could I expect to be so truly beloved and important; so always first and always right in any man's eyes as I am in my father's... Jane Austen
Life is truly a ride. We're all strapped in and no one can stop it. When the doctor slaps your behind, he's ripping your ticket and away you go. As you make each passage from youth to adulthood to maturity, sometimes you put your arms up and scream, sometimes you just hang on to that bar in front of you. But the ride is the thing. I think the most you can hope for at the end of life is that your hair's messed, you're out of breath, and you didn't throw up. Jerry Seinfeld
Lao Tzu quote: "The Master is her own physician. She has healed herself of all..."
The Master is her own physician. She has healed herself of all knowing. Thus she is truly whole. Lao Tzu
At one time, most of my friends could hear the bell, but as years passed, it fell silent for all of them. Even Sarah found one Christmas that she could no longer hear its sweet sound. Though I've grown old, the bell still rings for me, as it does for all who truly believe. Chris Van Allsburg

And he who does not climb the mountain of Christ does indeed fall into the abyss of Buddha. Gilbert K. Chesterton

Tom Robbins
