Thoughtful Reflections
Be independent and cling to nothing.

Albert Camus
Self is the only prison that can ever bind the soul.
Henry Van Dyke
Our entire life, with our fine moral code and our precious freedom, consists ultimately in accepting ourselves as we are.
Jean Anouilh
Mistakes are the portals of discovery.
James Joyce
The End.
