- Let the minor genius go his light way and enjoy his life - the great nature cannot so live, he is never really in holiday mood, even though he often plucks flowers by the wayside and ties them into knots and garlands like little children and lays out on a sunny morning.
- W. B. Yeats
- Hide not your talents. They for use were made. What's a sundial in the shade.
- Benjamin Franklin (1706 - 1790)
- Of all the possessions of this life fame is the noblest; when the body has sunk into the dust the great name still lives.
- Johann Von Schiller
- The thing that is incredible is life itself. Why should we be here in this sun-illuminated universe? Why should there be green earth under our feet?
- Edwin Markham
- Keep your face to the sunshine and you cannot see the shadow.
- Helen Keller (1880 - 1968)
- What sunshine is to flowers, smiles are to humanity. These are but trifles, to be sure; but, scattered along life's pathway, the good they do is inconceivable.
- Joseph Addison (1672 - 1719)
- One's age should be tranquil, as childhood should be playful. Hard work at either extremity of life seems out of place. At midday the sun may burn, and men labor under it; but the morning and evening should be alike calm and cheerful.
- Dr. Thomas Arnold
- There is not a flower or bird in sight, only a small screen on which lines are moving, while the child sits almost motionless, pushing at the keyboard with one finger. As a learning environment, it may be mentally rich, but it is perceptually extremely impoverished. No smells or tastes, no wind or bird song (unless the computer is programmed to produce electronic tweets), no connection with soil, water, sunlight, warmth, the actual learning environment is almost autistic in quality, impoverished sensually, emotionally, and socially.
- John Davy
