Good Morning! Here are your daily birthday quotations...
Robert W. Service
(1874 – 1958):
“Be master of your
petty annoyances and conserve your energies for the big, worthwhile things. It
isn't the mountain ahead that wears you out - it's the grain of sand in your shoe.”
and
“I like to think that
when I fall,
A rain-drop in
Death's shoreless sea,
This shelf of books
along the wall,
Beside my bed, will
mourn for me.”
William Kennedy (1928
- ):
“Let us, then, be up
and doing, with a heart for any fate.”
and
“We are only possible
as what happened to us yesterday. We all change as well move.”
Dian Fossey (1932 –
1985):
“The man who kills
the animals today is the man who kills the people who get in his way tomorrow.”
and
“When you realize the
value of all life, you dwell less on what is past and concentrate more on the
preservation of the future.”
Susan Sontag (1933 –
2004):
“My library is an
archive of longings.”
and
“Do stuff. be
clenched, curious. Not waiting for inspiration's shove or society's kiss on
your forehead. Pay attention. It's all about paying attention; attention is
vitality. It connects you with others. It makes you eager; stay eager.”
and
“A writer, I think,
is someone who pays attention to the world."
