Today's Words of Wisdom - November 25, 2015

Today is the birthday of the following people:



Arturo Pérez-Reverte (1951 - ):
“Never trust a man who reads only one book.”

and
“You don't choose your friends, they choose you, and you either reject them or you accept them without reservations.”

and

“One is never alone with a book nearby, don't you agree? Every page reminds us of a day that has passed and makes us relive the emotions that filled it. Happy hours underlined in red pencil, dark ones in black...”





Isaac Rosenberg (1890 – 1918):
“I will not leave a corner of my consciousness covered up, but saturate myself with the strange and extraordinary new conditions of this life, and it will all refine itself into poetry later on.”





Nat Adderley (1931 – 2000):
"I never heard of a jazz musician who retired. You love what you do, so what are you going to do? Play for the walls?"
