Facets of Life
Quotes made us think. When we think, we analyse the truth contain therein, and we learn the wisdom in them. Quotes can serve as our signposts on our journey through life. They can be our teachers, guardians, and friends … always there to patiently motivate, encourage, advice, counsel, console, enlighten, educate, and at times to egg us on when we are feeling down, discouraged or disillusioned. Some of these teachers are centuries old. But their words of wisdom are still as applicable today as when they were first said, centuries ago.

Howdy sir Vincent! Great amount of truth here and some wisdom too! I like that first one about not having wit so quotes can fill that void. Now if I could just remember them!
Hwdy onboy, I am pleased to hear that there is something you are learn from there. 😊
Well it was a little bit painful to be totally honest about it. I didn't really feel like having to learn anything today but I was forced into it once again!
Oh you poor dear! Anyhow, someday you will look back on today, and thank me for forcing you to learn, because you are then that bit cleverer.
lol..that's probably true and I sure need to be cleverer!
