or the sudden flash
of lightning -- already gone --
thus should one regard one's self. ~ Ikkyu

you're the one who has got to change. ~ Katharine Hepburn

Non nobis solum nati sumus. (Not for ourselves alone are we born.) ~ Cicero

surface of the average conscience a still, small voice says to us,
something is out of tune. ~ C. G. Jung
You have the answer. Just get quiet enough to hear it. ~ Pat Obuchowski
