““You must know that the human heart must be very large to contain all those you love.””

My Sweet Orange Tree • José Mauro de Vasconcelos

“As an enemy is made more fierce by our flight, so pain grows proud to see us truckle under it; she will surrender upon much better terms to those who make head against us.”

Essays • Michel De Montaigne

“Desire may reflect anything from a desperate need to a transitory want. In either case, wealth is anything that satisfies the craving. It applies balm to the itch. It may, in fact, gratify more than one desire at a time. We may want a touch of beauty on our living room wall. A painting, even an inexpensive reproduction, may provide a small surge of pleasure every time we pause to look at it. The same work of art may simultaneously fulfill our desire to impress visitors with our splendid good taste, or our social importance. But wealth can also be a bank account, a bicycle, a hoard of food or a health insurance policy.”

 Revolutionary Wealth • Alvin Toffler

“Courage is resistance to fear, mastery of fear -- not absence of fear.”

The Tragedy of Pudd'nhead Wilson • Mark Twain

“All sorrows are less with bread.”

Don Quixote • Miguel De Cervantes
