There are times in life when the most comfortable thing is to do nothing at all. Things happen to you and you just let them happen.

If you forgive people enough you belong to them, and they to you, whether either person likes it or not squatter's rights of the heart.

When you are getting on in years (but not ill, of course), you get very sleepy at times, and the hours seem to pass like lazy cattle moving across a landscape.
