Blooming Perfection


Certain flaws are necessary for the whole. It would seem strange if old friends lacked certain quirks.
 ~Goethe


"A man should hear a little music, read a little poetry, and see a fine picture every day of his life, in order that worldly cares may not obliterate the sense of the beautiful which God has implanted in the human soul."
— Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

"Life belongs to the living, and he who lives must be prepared for changes"
— Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
