Three Point Thursday | 3 Timeless Maxims
To curious minds,
Happy Three Point Thursday.
Here’s 3 maxims I’m thinking about:
“To me, every hour of the day and night is an unspeakably perfect miracle.”
—Walt Whitman
“To those of us who study history not merely as a warning reminder of man’s follies and crimes, but also as an encouraging remembrance of generative souls, the past ceases to be a depressing chamber of horrors; it becomes a celestial city, a spacious country of the mind, wherein a thousand saints, statesmen, inventors, scientists, poets, artists, musicians, lovers, and philosophers still live and speak, teach and carve and sing.”
—Will Durant
“The greater danger for most of us lies not in setting our aim too high and falling short; but in setting our aim too low, and achieving our mark.”
—Michelangelo
I’m so grateful for this life. I’m glad you’re here with me.
Sincerely,
Jeff
