He who postpones the hour of living rightly is like the rustic who waits for the river to run out before he crosses.
Horace (65 BC - 8 BC)

Everything has its wonders, even darkness and silence, and I learn whatever state I am in, therin to be content
Helen Keller (1880 - 1968)

Don't ever take a fence down until you know the reason it was put up.
G. K. Chesterton (1874 - 1936)

We should take care not to make the intellect our god; it has, of course, powerful muscles, but no personality.
Albert Einstein (1879 - 1955)

Selfishness is not living as one wishes to live, it is asking others to live as one wishes to live.
Oscar Wilde (1854 - 1900)

(NB: a translation for the last of these is the well-known legal principle that the freedom of motion of my fist is limited by the position of my neighbour's nose.)

God bless you both, you children of the morning!
Who have no guile, no hidden work to do;
Whose gaze is straight, whose eyes carry no scorning,
Who will walk straight whatever you walk to.

May all your lives be promises fulfilled;
YOur work be honest, and your leisure true;
May the love of the Lord be with you still;
May the love of each other be with you.
