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

Frank Lloyd Wright (1867 – 1959):

“The longer I live the more beautiful life becomes. If you foolishly ignore beauty, you will soon find yourself without it. Your life will be impoverished. But if you invest in beauty, it will remain with you all the days of your life.”

and

“A professional is one who does his best work when he feels the least like working.”

and

“Youth is a circumstance you can't do anything about. The trick is to grow up without getting old.”

Marguerite Yourcenar (1903 – 1987):

“Our great mistake is to try to exact from each person virtues which he does not possess, and to neglect the cultivation of those which he has.” 

and

“There are books which one should not attempt before having passed the age of forty.”

Francis Crick (1916 – 2004):

“The dangerous man is the one who has only one idea, because then he'll fight and die for it."

and

“There is no scientific study more vital to man than the study of his own brain. Our entire view of the universe depends on it.”

Tim Berners-Lee (1955 - ):

“In an extreme view, the world can be seen as only connections, nothing else. We think of a dictionary as the repository of meaning, but it defines words only in terms of other words. I liked the idea that a piece of information is really defined only by what it's related to, and how it's related. There really is little else to meaning. The structure is everything.”
