Happy the man who, like Ulysses, has made a fine voyage, or has won the Golden Fleece, and then returns, experienced and knowledgeable, to spend the rest of his life among his family!: Joachim Du Bellay, Sonnet de Regrets
I am beginning to learn that it is the sweet, simple things of life which are the real ones after all.: Laura Ingalls Wilder

I have learned throughout my life as a composer chiefly through my mistakes and pursuits of false assumptions, not by my exposure to founts of wisdom and knowledge.: Igor Stravinsky (1882 - 1971)
Life has no other discipline to impose, if we would but realize it, than to accept life unquestioningly. Everything we shut our eyes to, everything we run away from, everything we deny, denigrate, or despise, serves to defeat us in the end.

So, now I take great comfort in the general hostility and unfairness of the universe.: Marcus, Babylon 5
The only real failure in life is the failure to try.: Unknown
The most important things in life aren't things.: Anthony J. D'Angelo, The College Blue Book
The great end of life is not knowledge but action.: Thomas H. Huxley (1825 - 1895)
