Simple Pleasures

"Give me books, fruit,
French wine, and fine weather
and a little music
out of doors, played
by someone I do not know."
-John Keats, English poet
"Simplicity is making
the journey of this life
with just baggage enough."
-Charles Dudley Warner, American writer
"On a clear evening, lie on a
blanket in your backyard and
really look at the night sky.
Gazing at the stars reminds us
that there's more to life than
we'll ever realize and that
every day brings new chances."
Sarah Ban Breathnach, American writer
"I have a simple philosophy.
Fill what's empty.
Empty what's full.
Scratch where it itches."
-Alice Roosevelt Longworth, American hostess
"Let your boat of life
be light, packed
with only what you need-
a homely home and
simple pleasures..."
-Jerome Klapka, British writer
"One ought, every day at least,
to hear a little song,
read a good poem,
see fine picutres, and,
if if were possible, to speak
a few reasonable words."
-J.W Goethe, German poet
"Don't hurry, don't worry.
You're only here for a short visit.
So be sure to stop
and smell the flowers."
-Walter Hagan, American golfer
