A place to keep some of my favorite quotes:
“a good traveler has no fixed plans and is not intent on arriving”
Lao Tzu (570 – 490 BC)
“What gift has Providence bestowed on man that is so dear to him as his children?”
Cicero
“Thoughts reduced to paper are generally nothing more than footprints of a man walking in the sand. It is true that we see the path that he has taken; but to know what he saw on the way, we must use our own eyes.”
Arthur Schopenhauer
“Teach your child to hold his tongue; he’ll learn fast enough to speak.”
Benjamin Franklin
“My mother loved children. She would have given anything if I had been one.”
Groucho Marx
“Children are poor men’s riches.”
John Ray
“Never have children, only grandchildren.”
Gore Vidal
