A drop of inspiration

May this remind us of our intellectual curtain call, rally us for continued curiosity, and give us hope for small happinesses.

In spite of illness, in spite even of the archenemy sorrow, one can remain alive long past the usual date of disintegration if one is

unafraid of change,

insatiable in intellectual curiosity,

interested in big things,

and happy in small ways.

- Edith Wharton
