Quote of the day:
"Tell me not, in mournful numbers,Life is but an empty dream!For the soul is dead that slumbers,And things are not what they seem.Life is real! Life is earnest!And the grave is not its goal;Dust thou art; to dust returnest,Was not spoken of the soul."--Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, from A Psalm of Life, 1839

Thought of the day:
I would always ask my father jokingly what the meaning of life is. First he'd tell me that it's a cereal, no a game, no it's a magazine. At least something like that, but then he'd start resiting the poem above. Perhaps I'll find the meaning of life in those words someday
