PRAISE IS A DEBT THAT WE OWE
TO THE VIRTUES OF OTHERS.

SIR THOMAS BROWNE


The important thing is not to stop questioning. . . .
One cannot help but be in awe when he contemplates the mysteries of eternity,
of life, of the marvelous structure of reality.
It is enough if one tries merely to comprehend a little of this mystery every day.
Never lose a holy curiosity.

Albert Einstein 1879-1955

Art is a celebration of life. Sir Herbert Read.

Dr. Benjamin Spock died
Monday, March 16, 1998;
born New Haven, Connecticut, on May 2, 1903.
According to his wife,
Dr. Spock donated much of his income in recent years
to anti-war and civil rights causes.
He cared, still, and to the end, about the children.
Us.
Our children.
Our children's children.

Sometimes the good live long.
But they always die too soon.
Light the way, gentle Dr.
