Dear Jim,

Great quotes! Some of my faves:

William B. Irvine:

“One reason children are capable of joy is because they take almost nothing for granted.”

R.F. Kuang:

"Writing is the closest thing we have to real magic. Writing is creating something out of nothing, is opening doors to other lands."

Maxim Gorky:

“Happiness always looks small while you hold it in your hands, but let it go, and you learn at once how big and precious it is.”

Romain Rolland:

"No one ever reads a book. He reads himself through books."

"Discussion is impossible with someone who claims not to seek the truth, but already to possess it."

Brian Klaas:

“You’ll be astounded to realize how much of your day-to-day schedule has been determined by people who are long dead.”

Pierre Bayle:

"In matters of religion, it is very easy to deceive a man and very hard to undeceive him."

Thank you for sharing!

Love

Myq

“Nobody introduces themselves as “a human” at a cocktail party.”

Maybe I need to try that.

Well, not that I go to cocktail parties 🤔
