Passage of the Day
8/25/05
I don't kill flies but I like to mess with their minds. I hold them above globes. They freak out and yell, 'Whoa, I'm way
too high!'--Bruce Baum, U.S. comedian
"You ask why I make my home in the mountain forest
And I smile, and am silent,
And even my soul remains quiet:
It lives in the Other World
Which no one owns.
The peach trees blossom,
The water flows."
-Li Po (701 - 762)
"Let us revere, let us worship, but erect and open-eyed, the highest, not the lowest; the future, not the past!"
-Charlotte Perkins Gilman
"The problem to be faced is: how to combine loyalty to one's own tradition with reverence for different traditions."
-Abraham Joshua Heschel
"The best remedy for those who are afraid, lonely or unhappy is to go outside, somewhere where they can be quiet, alone
with the heavens, nature and God. Because only then does one feel that all is as it should be and that God wishes to see people
happy, amidst the simple beauty of nature."
-Anne Frank
