Here are some of my drawings and favorite quotes...Enjoy...or not!
There is no joy on earth like the joy of requited
love...a love blind to or tolerant of our weaknesses.
Patrick Woodroffe-
Our expression and our words never coincide, which
is why the animals don't understand us.
Chazal-
"It is easy to know God so long as you do
not tax yourself with defining Him"
-Joubert
Half of us are blind, few of us feel, and
we are all deaf.
Osler-
"Is there a God?" "Has Man a soul?" "Why must
we die?"
"How many hairs has the Devil's Grandmother?" "When is the Day of Judgement?"-
all these are idle questions, and one fool can ask more of them than a hundred wise men can answer.
-Rosenstock-Huessy
The tragedy of life is not so much what men
suffer, but rather what they miss.
Carlyle-
"If God lived on earth, people would break
his windows"
-Yiddish Proverb
The world gets better every day, then worse
again in the evening.
Kin Hubbard
I sit on a man's back, choking him and making
him carry me, and yet assure myself and others that I am very sorry for him and wish to lighten his load by all possible means...except
by getting off his back.
Tolstoi-
The more refined one is, the more unhappy.
Chekhov-
The only joy in the world is to begin.
Pavese-
Excesses are essentially gestures. It is easy
to be extremely cruel, magnanimous, humble, or self-sacrificing when we see ourselves actors in a performance.
Hoffer-
It is harder to hide feelings we have than
to feign those we lack.
La Rochefoucauld-

| The man with the hump, skiing! |
"Every man has his price." This is not true.
But for every man there exist a bait which he cannot resist swallowing.
Nietzsche-
He who is not very strong in memory, should
not meddle with lying.
Montaigne-
The greatest of faults, I should say, is to
be conscious of none.
Carlyle-
Every man likes the smell of his own farts.
Icelandic Proverb-
Many men on the point of an edifying death
would be furious if they were suddenly restored to health.
Pavese-
A few hours of mountain climbing turn a rascal
and a saint into two pretty similar creatures. Fatigue is the shortest way to Equality and Fraternity, and, in the end, Freedom
will surrender to Sleep.
Nietzsche-
Every scarecrow has the secret ambition to
terrorize.
