“A morning glory
at my window
satisfies me more
than the metaphysics
of books.”
~ Walt Whitman
Behold the Morning Glory
Living
Listen to the Waterfall
“As long as I live,
I’ll hear waterfalls and birds
and winds sing.
I’ll interpret the rocks,
learn the language of flood,
storm, and the avalanche.
I’ll acquaint myself with the glaciers
and wild gardens,
and get as near the heart
of the world as I can.”
~ John Muir
The Open Arms of Love
“Just imagine becoming the wayyou used to be
as a very young child,
before you understood
the meaning of any word,
before opinions took over your mind.
The real you is loving,
joyful, and free.
The real you is just like a flower,
just like the wind,
just like the ocean,
just like the sun.”
~ Miguel Angel Ruiz
Timeless Shades of Romance
“There is one timeless way of building. It is a thousand years old,
and the same today as it has ever been.
The great traditional buildings of the past,
the villages and tents and temples
in which man feels at home,
have always been made by people
who are very close to the
center of this way.”
~ Christopher Alexander
Building Blocks of Time
“A career is like a house; it’s made of many bricks, and each brick has the same value, because without any one of them, the house would collapse.”~ Andrea Bocelli
Stairway of Life
“Life is a series of steps.
Things are done gradually.
Once in awhile there is a giant step,
but most of the time we are taking small,
seemingly insignificant steps
on the stairway of life.”
~ Ralph Ransom
Top of the World
“After your first day of cycling, one dream is inevitable. A memory of motion lingers in the muscles of your legs, and round and round they seem to go. You ride through Dreamland on wonderful dream bicycles that change and grow.”
~H.G. Wells, The Wheels of Chance

The Delicate Daisy
“I think scent is sensual. I guess evoking a mood or a spirit is key, and I think with the women’s fragrances we have evoked different types, moods, or sensibilities of a woman – whether it’s Daisy with the sweetness and the innocence or Lola which is more provocative, sexy, and sultry.”
~ Marc Jacobs
