Though we travel the world over to find the beautiful, we must carry it with us, or we find it not.

Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803 – 1882)

  1. Another one I can agree with. What’s going on?

      I don’t know what is going on…

      But after our conversation on the Notre Dame windows post, I set myself a challenge. The challenge was to find a quote from my list of ‘to post’ quotes that you wouldn’t find controversial…

      I took my list of quotes with me this morning (whilst I traveled to visit my Aunt who lives 2 hours away) so I could find an appropriate quote. My Mum asked me if I was doing my homework. I had to explain I was just reading some quotes I had written down.

      I decided this quote was the one and I knew which photo I would post with it. When I got home this evening I did smile at Claude’s comment about beauty on my ‘Morning Light’ post ;-)

    They want your views BEFORE you watch anything and no doubt they will ask your views after. :o
    You can skip any questions you don’t want to answer. Seems safe. :)
