It's not the years in your life that count, it's the life in your years

A flavour of me in quotes...

Son(s), you outgrew my lap, but never my heart. ANON

The world is a book and those who do not travel read only one page. ST AUGUSTINE

Travel is fatal to prejudice, bigotry, and narrow-mindedness. MARK TWAIN

There are two means of refuge from the miseries of life: music and cats. ALBERT SCHWEITZER

Let us rise up and be thankful, for if we didn't learn a lot today, at least we learned a little, and if we didn't learn a little, at least we didn't get sick, and if we got sick, at least we didn't die; so, let us all be thankful. BUDDHA

Religion is the human response to being alive and having to die. FORREST CHURCH
