This year I start a new monthly series of quotes I like from my little humanist dictionary!
January
What do we live for, if it is not to make life less difficult to each other? George Eliot, “Middlemarch”
Progress is not an illusion; it happens but it is slow and invariably disappointing.
George Orwell “Inside the Whale – Charles Dickens”
Life is for living.
Noel Coward. “In a bar on the Picollina Marina”
A poor life this, if full of care,
We have not time to stand and stare.
William Henry Davies “Leisure”
Happiness comes in on tip toe… it’s a quiet thing.
Kander and Ebb
