Quote of the Week — Maturity

Maturity begins when we are content to feel we are right about something,

without feeling the necessity to prove someone wrong.

Strasbourg Cathedral, France

My guest this week is my grandson, William.

He writes:

We travelled overnight by bus from Brussels to Strasbourg, arriving around 4am. We were unable to check into the hotel until 6am., so we decided to walk around.

Walking down the street and seeing the cathedral dominating the sky was quite a spectacular sight.

The contrast between how empty the city was at that time, compared to after 9am was amazing.

If we had arrived later in the day we wouldn’t have been able to imagine the streets so empty.

Quote of the Week — Money

Money can’t buy happiness,

but it’s a lot more comfortable crying inside a Ferrari ,

than on a bike.

Quote of the Week– Change

I beg you, do not be unchangeable.

Do not believe that you alone can be right.

The man who thinks that,

The man who maintains that only he has the power

to reason correctly, the gift to speak, the soul–

A man like that, when you know him, turns out empty.

(Greek philosopher Sophocles)
