Quotations are the fundamental distillation of a writer’s life and thinking as recorded in words and phrases for posterity. Through them the reader is afforded the unique opportunity to share in the thoughts, the life and the experiences of the writer. In a special way, they offer the reader a window into the mind of the author and hopefully an inducement to read further and learn more about the author and the story he relates.

On a wider scale, they are, as William Feather wrote, “the wisdom of the wise and the experience of the ages preserved into perpetuity“, and as such they are available for the enrichment and enhancement of humanity, regardless of age, sex, race, educational or economic status. They are indeed, as the Talmud states, “food for the famished”.

The collection of quotations presented in this blog, have been chosen by me because of their special impact upon me. They have been published so that you too, may experience the joy I have had over the years reading them and getting to know the authors.

I trust that you will come to know the feeling of deep satisfaction possible from reading them, searching out the author and meditating upon their meaning and their impact on your life.

ANGELS

Fools rush in where angels fear to tread. ………Alexander Pope

We are each of us angels with only one wing,
and we can only fly by embracing one another. ……..Luciano de Crescenzo

You'll meet more angels on a winding path than on a straight one. ……..Daisey Verlaef

Angels are never too distant to hear you. ……..Author Unknown

It is by suffering that human beings become angels. …….Victor Hugo

Whenever you hear a bell ringing, an angel gets his wings. ……Clarence, “It’s a wonderful life”
