WISDOM FROM AN EARLIER TIME

Dscn2573 Inspirational quotations were located on the native granite stones of the Grove Park Inn, several in and around the fireplaces. I found them so compelling I asked for a copy.

Be not simply good—be good for something. Thoreau

Take things always by their smooth handle. Thomas Jefferson

Every book is a quotation; every house is a quotation out of all forest and mines and stone quarries and every man is a quotation from all his ancestors. Emerson

It is a sure sign of rain when it is black all around and pouring out in the middle. Indian Saying

The gem cannot be polished without friction or man perfected without trials. Dutch Proverb

Burdens come lighter when cheerfully bourne. Ovid

I recommend contemplation of some of these—along with a sit in a rocking chair.
