And so to bed..

Some more of my favourite quotes, as posted on Facebook to end the day, now with added pictures.














And so to bed... quote for tonight is from Lemony Snicket:

Fate is like a strange, unpopular restaurant filled with odd waiters who bring you things you never asked for and don't always like.





















And so to bed... quote for tonight is from Bamigboye Olurotimi:

If where we are now and whatever we are going through does not motivate us to leave this world better than the way we met it, we are in this world for wrong reasons.




















And so to bed... quote for tonight is from Carl Sagan:

For me, the most ironic token of [the first human moon landing] is the plaque signed by President Richard M. Nixon that Apollo 11 took to the moon. It reads, ‘We came in peace for all Mankind.’ As the United States was dropping seven and a half megatons of conventional explosives on small nations in Southeast Asia, we congratulated ourselves on our humanity. We would harm no one on a lifeless rock.














And so to bed... quote for tonight is from Danny Castillones Sillada:

The graveyard is not the final resting place of our dear departed but an ephemeral repository of their remains. The real graveyard, however, is somewhere deep in our heart, where we can always visit them at any time of the day, talk about some unforgettable summers, or cry in solitude as if they were always there for us to stay.













And so to bed... quote for tonight is from A.A. Milne:

“How does one become a butterfly?' Pooh asked pensively.

'You must want to fly so much that you are willing to give up being a caterpillar,' Piglet replied.

'You mean to die?' asked Pooh.

'Yes and no,' he answered. 'What looks like you will die, but what's really you will live on.”
