Nuns fret not at their convent's narrow room; And hermits are contented with their cells.

— William Wordsworth

Next Quote

Statistics vary, but in less than seven years there won't be a single cell left in any of our bodies that's the same as it is today. This means that any human being who 'wants' to change is like a mountain river wanting to reach the valley floor. It's a done deal; that's what mountain rivers do, and 'changing' should be our first nature.

— Guy Finley
