FOR MY FRIENDS
A
FEW WORDS TO LIVE BY
An
Irish wish from the heart of a friend--
"
May good fortune be yours, May your joys never end"
I
am of the opinion that my life
belongs to the community, and as long as
I live, it is my privilege to do for it
whatever I can. I want to be thoroughly
used up when I die, for the harder I
work, the more I live. Life is no 'brief
candle" to me. It is a sort of splendid
torch which I have got hold of for a
moment, and I want to make it burn as
brightly as possible before handing it
on to future generations"
George Bernard Shaw
Always
give to the community
more
than you take.
Someday
you may need
more
than they can give.

Marriage:
When two people are under the influence
of
the most violent, most insane, most delusive,
and
most transient of passions, they are required to
swear
that they will remain in that excited,
abnormal,
and exhausting condition
continuously
until death do them part.

George Bernard Shaw
Good
food to eat on my plate,
Good
wine to drink with my
lifes
soulmate.
A
home all warm and full of love,
Gods
small wonders from above.
All
this whenever it ends
whould
have no value
without
you dear friends.
