Confused is to develop
a mind that tries too
hard – one that thinks
too much.”

in the right way, at
the right time. At least

make it happen some
other way.”

is Fun.”

keeps saying ‘Around
the next corner, above
the next step,’ works
against the natural
order of things and
makes it so difficult to
be happy and good.”

15. “The wise are who
they are. They work
with what they’ve got
and do what they can
do.”
