A Time For Everything

"There is an appointed time for everything, and a time for every affair under the heavens. A time to give birth, and a time to die; a time to plant, and a time to uproot the plant. A time to kill, and a time to heal; a time to tear down, and a time to build. A time to weep, and a time to laugh; a time to mourn, and a time to dance. A time to scatter stones, and a time to gather them; a time to embrace, and a time to be far from embraces. A time to seek, and a time to lose; a time to keep, and a time to cast away. A time to rend, and a time to sew; a time to be silent, and a time to speak." ~ Ecclesiastes 3:1-8

Dalai Lama

"Our prime purpose in this life is to help others, and if you can't help them, at least don't hurt them."

Mark Twain

"Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn't do than by the ones you did.  So throw off the bowlines.  Sail away from the safe harbor.  Catch the trade winds in your sails.  Explore.  Dream.  Discover."

Paul Shepard

"To the desert go prophets and hermits; through deserts go pilgrims and exiles.  Here the leaders of the great religions have sought the therapeutic and spiritual values of retreat, not to escape but to find reality."
