Read widely. Read dangerously. Read courageously.
"It is impossible to learn what you think you already know."
(Epictetus)
We can turn seeming adversity into an
advantage by using it as practice.
Every annoying person is a chance for patience,
kindness, and forgiveness.
Every challenging situation is a chance for perseverance and hard work.
When I am an old woman I shall wear purple
With a red hat which doesn’t go, & doesn’t suit me...spend my pension on brandy & summer gloves...make up for the sobriety of my youth. I shall go out in my slippers in the rain
& pick flowers in other people’s gardens

Safe upon the solid rock the ugly houses stand:
