PHILOSOPHY

a deep question, but here are some quotes I like and try to follow:
"You cannot play with the animal in you without becoming wholly animal, play with falsehood without forfeiting your right to truth, play with cruelty without losing your sensitivity of mind. He who wants to keep his garden does not reserve a plot for weeds."
-Dag Hammarskjold

'Do
one
thing
ever
day
that
scares
you'
-Eleanor Roosevelt

if you're going through Hell... keep going.' -Winston Churchhill

'Humility means loving truth more than yourself.' -

'Do not fear mistakes-fear only the absence of creative, constructive, and corrective responses to those mistakes.' -S. Covey

Interests

my current main interest is somehow, somewhen visiting a 3rd-world country and helping the poor. Hopefully by next year I can rake up enough money to go somewhere!

• gardening
