“Training- training is everything; training is all there is to a person. We speak of nature; it is folly; there is no such thing as nature; what we call by that misleading name is merely heredity and training. We have no thoughts of our own, no opinions of our own; they are transmitted to us, trained into us.” ― Mark Twain, A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court

Thoughts about the first april

The first of April is the day we remember what we are the other 364 days of the year.        —-Mark Twin

April is a promise that May is bound to keep.         —-Hal Borland

April is the cruelest month, breeding lilacs of the dead land, mixing memory and desire, stirring dull roots with spring rain.         - —T S Eliot

Republicans believe every day is the fourth of July, but Democrats believe every day is April 15.    —-Ronald Reagan

April Comes like an idiot, Babbling and stewing flowers.                                                                               —-St Vincent Millay

Here cometh April again, and as far as i can see, the world hath more fools in it than ever.        —-Charls Lamb

Oh, to be in England now that april’s there.     —Robert Browning

Long stormy spring time, wet contentious April, winter chilling the lap of very May; but at length the summer does come.                                                         —-Thomas Crlyle

Sitting quietly, spring comes, and the grass grows by itself.                                                               —-Anne bradstreet

The April winds are magical, and thrill our tuneful frames; the garden-walks are passional to bachlors and dames.                                                   —-Ralph Wldo Emerson

The April comes after the Lovely Spring with heat of summer, like sorrow comes after great happiness.  —-M. K. Rundla

Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn’t do than by the ones you did do, so throw off the bowlines, sail away from safe harbor, catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore, Dream, Discover.

[drawingtoforget]

A God who could make good children as easily a bad, yet preferred to make bad ones; who could have made every one of them happy, yet never made a single happy one; who made them prize their bitter life, yet stingily cut it short; who gave his angels eternal happiness unearned, yet required his other children to earn it; who gave is angels painless lives, yet cursed his other children with biting miseries and maladies of mind and body; who mouths justice, and invented hell--mouths mercy, and invented hell--mouths Golden Rules and forgiveness multiplied by seventy times seven, and invented hell; who mouths morals to other people, and has none himself; who frowns upon crimes, yet commits them all; who created man without invitation, then tries to shuffle the responsibility for man's acts upon man, instead of honorably placing it where it belongs, upon himself; and finally, with altogether divine obtuseness, invites his poor abused slave to worship him!”

Mark Twain, The Mysterious Stranger
