The best things in life are nearest: Breath in your nostrils,light in
your eyes,flowers at your feet, duties at your hand, the path of right
just before you. Then do not grasp at the stars, but do life's plain,
common work as it comes, certain that daily duties and daily bread are
the sweetest things in life. ~ Robert Louis Stevenson
The art of being happy lies in the power of extracting happiness from common things.~ Henry Ward Beecher
When
you can do the common things of life in an uncommon way, you will
command the attention of the world. ~George Washington Carver
Many ingenious lovely things are gone
That seemed sheer miracle to the multitude,
protected from the circle of the moon
that pitches common things about.~ William Butler Yeats
