Life is a series of risks, some small, some great. Wisdom is knowing which risks to take.
Throughout our lives we will make many acquaintances but few true friends.
"What monstrosities would walk the streets were some people's faces as unfinished as their minds." - Eric Hoffer.
"An empty head is not really empty; it is stuffed with rubbish. Hence the difficulty of forcing anything in to an empty head." - Eric Hoffer.
