I shall have one, too," he told her. "so that you don't feel alone." she tried not to smile. "that is most generous of you." "i am quite certain it is my gentlemanly duty." "to eat cake?" "it is one of the more appealing of my gentlemanly duties," he allowed.

I've been around water my whole life, so i basically really learned at a young age the importance of it but also one day, at one point, clean water will be hard to find. there's so many people throughout the world that don't have access to clean water. obviously we're extremely fortunate to have the opportunities that we have and to have all the water that we have. like i said, and i can't say it enough, we all should work together to try and conserve as much as we possible can.

Every isolated passion, is, in isolation, insane; sanity may be defined as synthesis of insanities. every dominant passion generates a dominant fear, the fear of its non-fulfillment. every dominant fear generates a nightmare, sometimes in form of explicit and conscious fanaticism, sometimes in paralyzing timidity, sometimes in an unconscious or subconscious terror which finds expression only in dreams. the man who wishes to preserve sanity in a dangerous world should summon in his own mind a parliament of fears, in which each in turn is voted absurd by all the others.

Rather than dwelling on the past, we should make the most of today, of the here and now, doing all we can to provide pleasant memories for the future…if you are still in the process of raising children be aware that the tiny fingerprints that show up on almost every newly cleaned surface, the toys scattered about the house, the piles and piles of laundry to be tackled, will disappear all too soon, and that you will, to your surprise, miss them, profoundly.
