"The clouds may drop down titles and estates, and wealth may seek us, but wisdom must be sought." ― Edward Young Topic(s): Wisdom More From Edward Young "Life is the desert, life the solitude, death joins us to the great majority." "Less base the fear of death than fear of life." "Our birth is nothing but our death begun, As tapers waste the moment they take fire." More In Wisdom "In the vain laughter of folly wisdom hears half its applause."― George Eliot "Genius unrefined resembles a flash of lightning, but wisdom is like the sun."― Franz Grillparzer "Yeah, my dream would be to work for 6 months and then have 6 months to play, just snowboarding, surfing, and going to cool places to listen and be alone and kinda chill out."― Marc Newson
