“Antiphon, as another man gets pleasure from a good horse, or a dog, or a bird, I get even more pleasure from good friends. And if I have something good, I teach it to them, and I introduce them to others who will be useful to them with respect to virtue. And together with my friends I go through the treasures of wise men of old which they left behind written in books, and we peruse them. If we see something good, we pick it out and hold it to be a great profit, if we are able to prove useful to one another.” IfsMenBookWisdomAbleTogetherLeftPleasureBehindsTeachVirtueWiseWrittenDogProveBirdPicksMy FriendsHorseProfitTreasureIntroducingGood FriendLeft BehindAnother ManGood Horse Author:Socrates

“Let the painter composing narrative pictures take pleasure in wealth and variety, and avoid repeating any part that occurs in it, so that the uniqueness and abundance attract people to it and delight the eye of the observer. I say that a narrative painting requires (depending on the scene), wherever the eye falls, a mixture of men of diverse appearances, of diverse ages and dress, combined together with women, children, dogs, horses, buildings, fields, and hills.” PeopleMenChildrenEyeAgeTogetherFallWealthPleasureDogFieldsBuildingPaintingSceneHorseDressesDelightAppearancePainterVarietyHillsNarrativeAbundanceDiverseUniquenessObserversMixturesComposing Author:Leonardo da Vinci
“The dogs in our lives, the dogs we come to love and who (we fervently believe) love us in return, offer more than fidelity, consolation, and companionship. They offer comedy, irony, wit, and a wealth of anecdotes, the "shaggy dog stories" and "stupid pet tricks" that are commonplace pleasures of life.” BelieveStoriesWealthPleasureComedyOur LivesDogStupidReturnOffersWitTricksIronyPetCompanionshipConsolationCommonplaceFidelityAnecdotesBelieve In LovePleasures Of Life Author:Marjorie Garber
