Good Morning! Here are your daily birthday quotations...


Ivan Turgenev (1818 – 1883):
“If we wait for the moment when everything, absolutely everything is ready, we shall never begin.”

and
“A poet must be a psychologist, but a secret one: he should know and feel the roots of phenomena but present only the phenomena themselves in full bloom or as they fade away.”




Anne Sexton (1928 – 1974):
“As it has been said:
Love and a cough
cannot be concealed.
Even a small cough.
Even a small love.”


and 
“Put your ear down close to your soul and listen hard.”
“Only my books anoint me,
and a few friends,
those who reach into my veins.”

and
“The joy that isn't shared dies young.”




Carl Sagan (1934 – 1996):
“Every one of us is, in the cosmic perspective, precious. If a human disagrees with you, let him live. In a hundred billion galaxies, you will not find another.”

and
"It has been said that astronomy is a humbling and character-building experience. There is perhaps no better demonstration of the folly of human conceits than this distant image of our tiny world. To me, it underscores our responsibility to deal more kindly with one another, and to preserve and cherish the pale blue dot, the only home we've ever known.”

and
“The nitrogen in our DNA, the calcium in our teeth, the iron in our blood, the carbon in our apple pies were made in the interiors of collapsing stars. We are made of starstuff.”

and

“One glance at a book and you hear the voice of another person, perhaps someone dead for 1,000 years. To read is to voyage through time.”
