Glad to see I still inspire things in people, even though I've long since retired from that business. I guess that's the way it falls when you've read too much Emerson and Vonnegut.
Here are a few quotes that I try to keep in mind day-to-day.
People do not seem to realize that their opinion of the world is also a confession of character. -- Ralph Waldo Emerson
Character is higher than intellect... A great soul will be strong to live, as well as to think.-- Ralph Waldo Emerson
I urge you to please notice when you are happy, and exclaim or murmur or think at some point, "If this isn't nice, I don't know what is." --Kurt Vonnegut, Jr.
I really like that William James quote. I'd never seen it before. Thanks.
