2. A day without sunshine is like, night.

36. Inside every older person is a younger person wondering what
happened.

30. Sometimes, the piles of laundry really start to bug me. I've found though, that if I just wait a couple days, that feeling goes away. (hypothetically speaking ... ;) )

Here is one that stood out for me.

Always try to be modest, and be proud of it!

Here are a few Zen saying from the book The Little Zen Companion by David Schiller

Knock on the sky and listen to the sound!

To ask the hard question is simple.

With all you science can you tell how it is, and whence it is, that light comes into the soul?

It is hard to see one's self as to look backwards without turning around.

What is the sound of one hand clapping?
