&quot;Those who find beautiful meanings in beautiful things are the cultivated. For these there is hope. They are the elect to whom beautiful things mean only beauty&quot; .<br /> &quot;We can forgive a man for making a useful thing as long as he does not admire it. The only excuse for making a useless thing is that one admires it intensely&quot;.<br /> &quot;Conscience and cowardice are really the same things. Conscience is the trade-name of the firm. That is all.&quot;<br /> Oscar Wilde: The Picture of Dorian Gray

I am very interested and fascinated how everyone loves each other, but no one really likes each other.<br /> <br /> I just hope I remember to tell my kids that they are as happy as I look in my old photographs. And I hope that they believe me.<br /> <br /> I used to listen to it all the time when I was little and thinking about grown-up things. I would go to my bedroom window and stare at my reflection in the glass and the trees behind it and just listen to the song for hours. I decided then that when I met someone I thought was as beautiful as the song, I should give it to that person. And I didn&rsquo;t mean beautiful on the outside. I meant beautiful in all ways.
