Giving to others is like peeing your pants in public.  Everyone can see the results but only you can feel the warmth.

"Be interested in everything. A human being should be able to dress a deer, program a computer, raise a garden, play poker, be a tollerable judge of wines, be able to talk about their favorite forms of music, and look at the stars and identify at least a few of the constellations... Specialization is for insects."  -Lazarus Long

Wow, what a wonderful wealth of witticisms and knowledge...

Particularly love this one, "It's easier to lie to others than to stop deceiving yourself." (French proverb).   Thanks Stella.  Am going to be emailing that to a friend of mine who has been cheating on her husband for years - and is finally starting to realize she's been living a lie.

One more for the pot...

... knowledge must continually be renewed by ceaseless effort, if it is not to be lost. It resembles a statue of marble which stands in the desert and is continually threatened with burial by the shifting sand. The hands of service must ever be at work, in order that the marble continue to lastingly shine in the sun. To these serving hands mine shall also belong. (Albert Einstein, On Education, 1950)
