“Imagine you had a bank that each morning credited your account with $1,440 - with one condition: whatever part of the $1,440 you failed to use during the day would be erased from your account, and no balance would be carried over. What would you do? You'd draw out every cent every day and use it to your best advantage. Well, you do have such a bank, and its name is time. Every morning, this bank credits you with 1,440 minutes. And it writes off as forever lost whatever portion you have failed to invest to good purpose.” WritingWellsUseWould BePurposeNamesLostMorningForeverImagineMinutesConditionsBalanceDrawsAdvantageAccountsCreditPortionsCentsEvery Morning Author:Ann Landers
“Every man is prompted by the love of himself to imagine that he possesses some qualities, superior, either in kind or degree, to those which he sees allotted to the rest of the world; and, whatever apparent disadvantages he may suffer in the comparison with others, he has some invisible distinctions, some latent reserve of excellence, which he throws into the balance, and by which he generally fancies that it is turned in his favour.” MenWorldKindMaySufferingQualityImagineBalanceDegreesExcellenceEvery ManInvisibleSuperiorsFancyDistinctionComparisonImagine ThatReservesFavourDisadvantagesLatent Book:Samuel Johnson: Selected Writings Source: Samuel Johnson: Selected Writings

“Traveling is a brutality. It forces you to trust strangers and to lose sight of all that familiar comfort of home and friends. You are constantly off balance.
