Sleep Well, My Dear.



 A well-spent day brings happy sleep.
Leonardo da Vinci

  O bed!  O bed!  Delicious bed!  
 That heaven upon earth to the weary head.
Thomas Hood
(Miss Kilmansegg and Her Precious Leg - Her Dream)

 All men whilst they are awake
 are in one common world.
 But each of them, when he is asleep,
 is in a world of his own.
Plutarch

Stars of Hope!



We need to learn to set our course by the Stars,
not by the light of every passing ship.
Omar Nelson Bradley

Neither should a ship rely on one small anchor,
nor should life rest on a single Hope.
Epictetus

A Cup of Tea?



 If you are cold, Tea will warm you.
 If you are too heated, it will cool you.
 If you are depressed, it will cheer you.
 If you are excited, it will calm you.
William Gladstone

 There are few hours in life more agreeable than
 the hour dedicated to the ceremony
 known as afternoon Tea.
Henry James

 There is no trouble so great or grave
 that cannot be much diminished
 by a nice cup of Tea.
Bernard-Paul Heroux



First Coffee First!



 Coffee is the best thing to douse the sunrise with.  
Drew Sirtors

 Coffee smells like freshly ground heaven. 
Jessi Lane Adams

 I orchestrate my mornings to the tune of Coffee.  
Harry Mahtar

 The morning cup of Coffee 
 has an exhilaration about it
 which the cheering influence of
 the afternoon or evening cup of tea
 cannot be expected to reproduce.
Oliver Wendall Holmes Sr.

Going the Way of the Dodo?



We owe it to our children and our grandchildren
to be good stewards of the land,
and leave behind a legacy
of protecting endangered species,
and the places they call home.

The most effective way to save endangered species is
to protect the places they need to live.

Every one of these birds
needs the protection of the Endangered Species Act.
In part, it's about protecting habitat,
because every bird and every animal of any kind
needs a home.

Nature is the mother
and the habitat of man,
even if sometimes a stepmother
and an unfriendly home.

Dead as a Dodo!



Praises for our past triumphs are
as feathers to a dead bird !

We think caged birds sing,
when indeed they cry !

No Sense of Humor?



Whenever you have Truth
it must be given with Love,
or the message and the messenger will be rejected.
Mahatma Gandhi


Happiness is when
what you think,
what you say,
and what you do
are in Harmony.
Mahatma Gandhi
 
the Roots of Violence:
wealth without work,
pleasure without conscience,
knowledge without character,
commerce without morality,
science without humanity,
worship without sacrifice,
politics without principles.
Mahatma Gandhi
 
If I had no sense of humor,
I would long ago have committed suicide!
Mahatma Gandhi
