"Tension is who you think you should be. Relaxation is who you are." ~Chinese Proverb

"The great 

omission 

in American life is 

solitude; 

not loneliness, 

for this is an 

alienation 

that thrives most 

in the midst of crowds, 

but that zone of 

time 

and space, 

free from the outside 

pressures, 

which is the incubator 

of the 

 spirit." 

~Marya Mannes
