People are wonderful but persons are an annoyance. Our so called ‘love of people’ serves to hide our very limited love of persons. When we cannot love persons,  what good to say we love people? It costs nothing to love the world.   It cost much to love the ones sharing your space, your pocketbook and…

Some people just have not had their boots on long enough. Privacy is the ultimate illusion.   Most people think no one knows their thoughts, except God,  but only when they’re praying.
