quote from the enquirer (cincinnati)

"life... is not about winning and losing. It is not, edifying as it sounds, even about how you play the game. It is simply that you play - that you live until you die, wake until you sleep, move until you're stilled, try until you can't." for dada -- because he did try until he couldn't

A sobering quote, but one that caught my eye this morning. pnp

Producing coinage for collectors is lucrative. Since the Treasury spends about 12 cents to make a dollar coin, it makes 88 cents' profit whenever one is pulled from a pocket and stashed away...The Mint has raked in $4.6 billion thus far on its similar state-quarters program. Making money, it seems, is a decent way to make money.

Life and the Pursuit of Happiness

What is life, happiness? it means not one thing to everyone, but everything to each one of us.

whether it be an emotion, a social status, an abstract idea that no one attains, or something that each of us has at all times, it is all of these ends and more, or not.

one cannot fathom the extent of joy, suffering, discovery, and failure that occurs each second of everyday... but to try to in one life, that is something.

let us all dedicate ourselves to the pursuit of ourselves in the hope that this brings us all up from the bottom

let us understand ourselves and, in turn, understand each other.
