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



James Weldon Johnson (1871 – 1938):
“...evil is a force and, like the physical and chemical forces, we cannot annihilate it; we may only change its form. We light upon one evil and hit it with all the might of our civilization, but only succeed in scattering it into a dozen of other forms”




M.C. Escher (1898 – 1972):
“It's pleasing to realize that quite a few people enjoy this sort of playfulness and that they are not afraid to look at the relative nature of rock-hard reality.”

and
“I don't grow up. In me is the small child of my early days.”




John Hersey (1914 – 1993):
“Do not work primarily for money; do your duty to patients first and let the money follow; our life is short, we don't live twice; the whirlwind will pick up the leaves and spin them, but then it will drop them and they will form a pile.”

and
“Journalism allows its readers to witness history; fiction gives its readers an opportunity to live it.”




Kendrick Lamar (1987 - ):
“We hurt people who love us; love people who hurt us.”

and

“I stare at the mirror then realize that “real” lies within me.”
