There is something in the nature of silence which affects me deeply. Why it is I know not; but I do know that I love to be alone at such an hour as this. I love to forget the outward world and hold communion with the beings of the mind. ~Charles Lanman

I do not believe in a fate that falls on men however they act; but I do believe in a fate that falls on them unless they act.

OK, I'm early for posting tomorrow, but I happen to be awake just before midnight, so here goes:

Above all, don't go gunning for gloom. It was a pious thought that got loose when that guy wrote "Laugh and Grow Fat," to which might be added — Grin and grow gracious. ~James P. Haverson _________________
