Part of my passion is encouraging people, and showing them their talents and strengths. So I was glad to find this Goethe quote: "Dream no small dreams for they have no power to move the hearts of men."
To keep balanced I also look for humor. These from Shakespeare are a couple that make me smile. They are clever and aren't directed at anyone and so they don't hurt or belittle: "He is winding the watch of his wit; by and by it will strike." and "I dote on his very absence." Here is a side of Albert Einstein you may be unfamiliar with: "Any man who can drive safely while kissing a pretty girl is simply not giving the kiss the attention it deserves." And here is another Goethe quote: "We do not have to visit a madhouse to find disordered minds; our planet is the mental institution of the universe."
I live near the mountains and spend part of the week walking around in the mountains with friends to clear my mind of some of the junk from the demands of the day. If you enjoy time with people sharing ideas, please join me in this on-line conversation ... Pretend we are in my home; pull up a chair; let's share.
