    A fragile dew-drop on its perilous way
    From a tree's summit.
    (John Keats)



  2. Our life is frittered away by detail ... Simplify, simplify.

  3. Life is real! Life is earnest!
    And the grave is not its goal;
    Dust thou art, to dust returnest,
    Was not spoken of the soul.
    (Longfellow)



  4. There's night and day, brother, both sweet things; sun, moon and stars, brother, all sweet things; there's likewise a wind on the heath. Life is very sweet, brother; who would wish to die?

  5. Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player,

    Signifying nothing.
    (Shakespeare : Macbeth)

    (J. R. Miller)



  8. If you wake up breathing, congratulations! You have another chance.

They have made some deals and had some fun but in terms of satisfying friendships or lasting accomplishments, their lives have been zero. They have climbed the ladder of success, only to discover that all along it had been leaning against the wrong wall.

    An ancient historian would have written volumes about the splendour of Emperor Nero and probably never mentioned Apostle Paul executed by the former. Yet today we name our dogs Nero and our sons Paul.
