We Suffer More Often On Imagination Than In Reality

by | Nov 27, 2019 | Quotes | 0 comments

It’s been a while since I’ve done this, but maybe it’s because it’s almost December, and 2019 will be closing down soon. I use to post quotes from several sources and for whatever reason, stopped. I woke up this morning feeling this urge to repost and share some of the quotes I came across today. Perhaps retyping them and sharing will help me absorb them a little better, or maybe it will mean something to someone else who reads this.
