The Facts Of Life Are The Impossibilities

Let Your Boat Of Life Be Light, Packed With Only What You Need - A Homely Home And Simple Pleasures, One Or Two Friends, Worth The Name, Someone To Love And Someone To Love You, A Cat, A Dog, And A Pipe Or Two, Enough To Eat And Enough To Wear, And A Little More Than Enough To Drink; For Thirst Is A Dangerous Thing.

He Is Very Imprudent, A Dog; He Never Makes It His Business To Inquire Whether You Are In The Right Or The Wrong, Never Asks Whether You Are Rich Or Poor, Silly Or Wise, Sinner Or Saint. You Are His Pal. That Is Enough For Him.

Nothing Is More Beautiful Than The Love That Has Weathered The Storms Of Life. The Love Of The Young For The Young, That Is The Beginning Of Life. But The Love Of The Old For The Old, That Is The Beginning Of Things Longer.
