Five great quotes and proverbs
1.Husbands never become good;they merely become proficient.-H.L.Mencken
2.But all endings are also beginnings.We just don't know it at the time.-Mitch Albom,THE FIVE PEOPLE YOU MEET IN HEAVEN
3.Trumpet in a herd of elephants;crow in the company of cocks;bleat in a flock of goats.-Malayan proverb
4.The things that make good headlines attract our attention because they are on the surface of the stream of life,and they distract our attention from the slower,impalpable,imponderable movements that work below the surface and penetrate to the depths.But,of course,it is really these deeper,slower movements that,in the end,make history,and it is they that stand out huge in retrospect,when the sensational passing events have dwindled,in perspective,to their true proportions.-Arnold Toynbee in CIVILIZATION ON TRIAL(1948)
5.Visits always give pleasure;if not the arrival,the departure.-Portuguese proverb
