“To be always intending to make a new and better life but never to find time to set about it is as…to put off eating and drinking and sleeping from one day to the next until you’re dead.”

Re: Quotations and Proverbs
A few quotes from Poimandres, aka the Mind of the Universe, the Creative Intelligence.
"The punishment of desire is the agony of unfulfillment." "To the ignorant, the body is the supreme and they are incapable of realizing the immortality that is within them. Knowing only the body which is subject to death, they believe in death because they worship that substance which is the cause and reality of death." |

Re: Quotations and Proverbs
All kinds of beauty do not inspire love; there is a kind which only pleases the sight, but does not captivate the affections.
Miguel de Cervantes Youth is happy because it has the capacity to see beauty. Anyone who keeps the ability to see beauty never grows old. Franz Kafka And here is the link to great Francoise La Rochefoulcauld's aphorisms.. http://www.aphorism4all.com/by_author.php?aut_id=537 |
