Quote of the Day

Any time I see a quote about Venice, it makes me want to transport there immediately, eat a nutella and banana crepe, have a scoop of gelato, and meander the quiet streets while listening to the gondoliers sing in their amazing operatic Italian voices in rhythm to the waters lapping against the multi colored buildings... It's such a magical place.

"It is the city of mirrors, the city of mirages,

at once solid and liquid, at once air and stone."

-Erica Jong

"Build a little fence of trust

Around today;

Fill the space with loving work

And therein stay.

Look not through the protective rails

Upon tomorrow;

God will help you bear what comes

Of joy or sorrow."

Quote of the Day
