Thoreau said, "Do not be too moral. You may cheat yourself out of much life. Aim above morality. Be not simply good; be good for something."


I recently watched the movie THE POSTMAN which is based on the time Neruda lived as an exile in an Italian sea coast town.

It's the birthday of poet and politician Pablo Neruda, born in Parral, Chile (1904). He won the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1971. In his Nobel lecture he said, "All paths lead to the same goal: to convey to others what we are."

Neruda's comment would be an excellent comment for the banner on my blog.
