Quote of The Day 3/29/13





"Change in all things is sweet."
-Aristotle

A quick sweet one for today.  Some, and possibly many, will disagree with the sentiment provided in today's quote.  But for me, this one rings true.  I enjoy change.  I have a hunger for new perspectives and fresh stimuli.  And change is quite natural.  So few things, if any, stay the same.  I can understand the comfort of constants and reliability.  However, embracing change no matter how great or small can be very liberating.

Aristotle (384-322 BC) was a Greek philosopher.  He is historically well known as the pupil of Plato and teacher of Alexander the Great.  One of the most significant founders of Western thought in history, Aristotle is heralded for his wonderful writings on subjects such as politics, logic, theater, music, ethics, and metaphysics amongst many others.  Unfortunately it is believed that as much as two thirds of his vast writings have not survived the ages.
