Every man is a part of the continent, a piece of the whole...if a clod be washed away by the sea, Europe is the less. Any man's death diminishes me because I'm involved in mankind. Therefore, never send to know for whom the bell TOLLS, it tolls for thee." ~~John Donne # "Death is more universal than life; everyone dies but not everyone lives." ~~A.

From the emergence of tone comes the divergence of thought. From the enlightenment of music comes the wisdom of... silence." ~~Gregorian Chants # "Men are equal; it is not birth but virtue that makes the difference." ~~Voltaire # "They have exiled me now from their society and I am pleased, because humanity does not exile except the one whose noble spirit rebels against despotism and oppression. He who does not prefer exile to slavery is not free by any measure of freedom, truth and duty." ~~Kahil Gibran # "Yesterday I was a dog. Today I'm a dog. Tomorrow I'll probably still be a dog. Sigh! There's so little hope for advancement." ~~Snoopy # "When the weather is gloppy and gloopy and glucky And you're feeling depressed and a little bit yucky And you're wondering why you should be so unlucky, Just raise your umbrella and wait till it's through-- The bad times won't last, because storms never do! (In the meantime, remember people care about you)" ~~Dr Seuss # #
