Snippets of wisdom - Part 1

  • It is incredibly easy to get caught up in an activity trap in the busy-ness of life, to work harder and harder at climbing the ladder of success, only to discover, its leaning against the wrong wall
  • We are all in the gutter, but some of us are looking at the stars
  • The ugliest of trades have their moments of pleasure now if i were a grave digger or even an hangsman, there are some people i would work for with a great deal of enjoyment
  • The reasonable man adopts himself to the world, The unresonable one persists in trying to adopt the world to himself. Therefore all progress depends on the unresonable man
  • So long as all the increased wealth which modern progress brings, goes but to build up great fortunes to increase luxury and make sharper the dfference berween house of have's and the house of wants progress is not real and cannot be permanent
