There is always a brave lost brother - and a little lost sister, too. We dream on and on: the best hotel, the perfect family, the resort life. And our dreams escape us almost as vividly as we can imagine them... T.. | John Irving | ||

| a3e60a2 | We humans do not understand compassion. In each moment of our lives, we betray it.

| a84fb87 | You cannot stay on the summit forever; you have to come down again. So why bother in the first place?

There is an art of conducting oneself in the lower regions by the memory of what one saw higher up. When one can no longer see, one can at least still know. | inspirational | Rene Daumal | |
