Halloween Wisdome

Hark! Hark to the wind!

'Tis the night, they say,

When all souls come back from the far away-

The dead, forgotten this many a day!

~Virna Sheard

Halloween Wisdome

You wouldn't believe

On All Hallow Eve

What lots of fun we can make,

With apples to bob,

And nuts on the hob,

And a ring-and-thimble cake.

Carolyn Wells~

Halloween Wisdome

One need not be a chamber
to be haunted;
one need not be a house;
The brain has corridors surpassing
Material place.
~Emily Dickinson

Halloween Wisdome

'Tis the night - the night
Of the grave's delight,
And the warlocks are at their play;
Ye think that without
The wild winds shout,
But no, it is they - it is they.

~Arthur Cleveland Coxe

Halloween Wisdome

Where there is no imagination there is no Horror. ~Arthur Conan Doyle, Sr.

Scottish Wisdome...

From ghoulies and ghosties

And long-leggedy beasties

And things that go bump in the night,

Good Lord, deliver us!

~Scottish Saying

Halloween Wisdome

Bring forth the raisins and the nuts-
Tonight All-Hallows' Spectre struts
Along the moonlit way.
~John Kendrick Bangs

Calvin and Hobbes Wisdom...

"History is the fiction we invent to persuade ourselves that events are knowable and that life has order and direction. That's why events are always reinterpreted when values change. We need new versions of history to allow for our current prejudices."-Calvin & Hobbes

Buddha-ism

One of his students asked Buddha,

"Are you the messiah?"

"No", answered Buddha.

"Then are you a healer?"

"No", Buddha replied.

"Then are you a teacher?" the student persisted.

"No, I am not a teacher."

"Then what are you?" asked the student, exasperated.

"I am awake", Buddha replied.

Buddha-ism

All that we are is the result of what we have thought. If a man speaks or acts with an evil thought, pain follows him. If a man speaks or acts with a pure thought, happiness follows him, like a shadow that never leaves him. - Buddha

ThanksGiving

Ah! on Thanksgiving day,
when from East and from West,
From North and South,
come the pilgrim and guest,
When the gray-haired New Englander
sees round his board
The old broken links of affection restored,
When the care-wearied man
seeks his mother once more,
And the worn matron smiles
where the girl smiled before.
What moistens the lips
and what brightens the eye?
What calls back the past,
like the rich pumpkin pie?
- John Greenleaf Whittier

Change Wisdom

Change alone is eternal, perpetual, immortal - Albert Schopenhauer
