Wonder

¨He felt that his whole life was some kind of dream, and he sometimes wondered whose it was, and whether they were enjoying it.¨ Douglas Adams

"He who wonders discovers that this in itself is wonder." M.C. Escher

"I would rather have my mind opened by wonder, than closed by belief." Gerry Spence

"It is wonderful how quickly we get used to things, even the most astonishing." Edith Nesbitt

"Once we believe in ourselves, we can risk curiousity, wonder, spontaneous delight, or any experience that reveals the human spirit." ee cummings

"Young cat, if you keep your eyes open enough, oh, the stuff you would learn! The most wonderful stuff!" Dr. Seuss

"To be matter of fact about the world is to blunder into fantasy --and dull fantasy at that, as the real world is strange and wonderful." Robert Heinlein

"Never make anything simple and efficient when a way can be found to make it complex and wonderful." Unknown

And a final gem of wisdom:

"Be what you would seem to be -- or, if you´d like it put more simply-- Never imagine yourself not to be otherwise than what it might appear to others that what you were or might have been was not otherwise than what you had been would have appeared to them to be otherwise.¨ Lewis Carroll
