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

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

"Poetry is an echo asking a shadow to dance."

"Time is the coin of your life. It is the only coin you have, and only you can determine how it will be spent. Be careful lest you let other people spend it for you."

"Tell no man anything, for no man listensYet hold thy lips ready to speak."

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