Some things just go more quickly, more surprisingly, than others.” WorldMindChildrenMadeHardFeelingsMightFallStrangeIllusionUnderstoodDown AndConstantHeavyBillionsGrievingZeroGravityOfferingTruth Of LifeBreaking DownFloatsMoleculesDriftingPermanenceLightnessZero Gravity Author:Lisa Unger
“While we only look at Nature it is fair to say that Autumn is the end of the year; but it is still more true that Autumn is the beginning of the year....

Any government which made the welfare of men depend on the character of their governors was an illusion.” MenMadeCharacterGovernmentWould BeHonestDangerDependsIllusionPhilosopherContraryWelfareGovernorsPinsOccasionalFranklin Book:The Lost World of Thomas Jefferson Source: The Lost World of Thomas Jefferson
