Life is like an onion. You peel it off one layer at a time,... - Carl Sandburg

"Life is like an onion; you peel it off one layer at a time, and sometimes you weep."

"A baby is God's opinion that the world should go on."

"Time is the coin of your life. You spend it. Do not allow others to spend it for you."

"Gather the stars if you wish it soGather the songs and keep them.Gather the faces of women.Gather for keeping years and years.And then...Loosen your hands, let go and say good-bye.Let the stars and songs go.Let the faces and years go.Loosen your hands and say good-bye."

"Nearly all the best things that came to me in life have been unexpected, unplanned by me."
