Wisdom
When the hour of dire need draws nigh
A threatening place
A small corner of the world of things
It will revenge itself in judgment
The journey begins by letting go
When we hit our lowest point
Always start at the doorstep
I have failed my art
The way of things
How things ought to be
Never any place I was meant to be
The wisdom of the apprentice
What does wisdom counsel?
Wisdom
Managing Oneself
Ignorant, but curious
Become a person who actually does things
Truisms
To supersede the span of individual life
A QuoteNothing gives man fuller satisfaction than participation in processes that supersede the span of individual life.
— Gotthard Booth
Old words
A Quote by Winston ChurchillShort words are best
and the old words, when short,
are the best of all.
