Work is love made visible.
And if you cannot work with love but only with distaste, it is better that you should leave your work and sit at the gate of the temple and take alms of those who work with joy.
Work Chapter VII (excerpt). Kahlil Gibran
Labor to keep alive in your breast that little spark of celestial fire called conscience.

It can be in a crowd, but in an oblivious crowd.
Louis Aragon
Drink wine. This is life eternal. This is all that youth will give you. It is the season for wine, roses and drunken friends. Be happy for this moment. This moment is your life.
