Thoughts for the day

The photos in my title as well as today's blog are from the Ashes and Snow collection by Gregory Colbert. The photographs are marvelous.

I finished a really good story called "The Notorious Dr. August" by Christopher Bram. It was a fun read.

I am now reading a story called "Pest Control" by Bill Fitzhugh. I was in such happy oblivion reading this morning that I never got my second cup of coffee.

So allow me to leave you with these thoughts today:

"Do the right thing. It will gratify some people and astonish the rest."
- Mark Twain

"Don't part with your illusions. When they are gone you may still exist, but you have ceased to live."
- Mark Twain

'The true sign of intelligence is not knowledge but imagination."
- Albert Einstein

"A thought, even a possibility, can shatter and transform us."
- Friedrich Nietzsche

"You must have chaos within you to give birth to a dancing star."
-Friedrich Nietzsche

"I like nonsense, it wakes up the brain cells. Fantasy is a necessary ingredient in living."
- Dr. Seuss

"While we have the gift of life, it seems to me the only tragedy is to allow part of us to die -- whether it is our spirit, our creativity, or our glorious uniqueness."
- Gilda Radner

And I say to you: Good Day! Cheers! Aloha! Shalom!
