If he shut the doors of the house of mourning against me, I would move back again and again and beg to be admitted so that I might share in what I was entitled to share. If he thought me unworthy, unfit to weep with him, I should feel it as the most poignant humiliation.” IfsFeelsShouldMindMightMovingHouseBitsFriendshipDoorsShareMinesSorrowMourningBitternessInvitesAgain And AgainEntitledHumiliationUnworthyBack AgainPoignant Author:Oscar Wilde
“A short term view will lead to a partial and perhaps twisted view of the whole picture. A crucial element may be missing. We may not be running the entire race. A friend of mine described a colleague as great at running the "ninety-five yard dash." That is a distinction I can do without. Lacking the last five yards makes the first ninety-five pointless.

You've got to think beyond the whole.” ThinkingFirstsMayI CanWholeFactsRunningLastsTermCan DoFriendshipViewsRaceFiveMissingMinesSeriousElementsDistinctionCrucialLackingYardsRunnersColleaguesNinetyTwistedShort TermPointlessWhole Picture Author:Max De Pree
