"Tears come from the heart and not from the brain." — Leonardo da Vinci

Time stays long enough for anyone who will use it.

I love those who can smile in trouble, who can gather strength from distress, and grow brave by reflection. 'Tis the business of little minds to shrink, but they whose heart is firm, and whose conscience approves their conduct, will pursue their principles unto death.

Nothing strengthens authority so much as silence.

The smallest feline is a masterpiece.
