    Default "SUNBEAMS"

    One of my pen-pals sent me 5 back issues of "The Sun", a magazine I was not aware of. It has a page devoted to quotes it calls "SUNBEAMS". Here are some: The place to improve the world is first in one's own heart and head and hands. Robert M. Pirsig Fall seven times. Stand up eight. Japanese proverb None who have always been free can understand the terrible fascinating power of the hope of freedom to those who are not free. Pearl S. Buck

    This was kind of difficult to read. Let me try again...The place to improve the world is first in one's own heart and head and hands. (Robert M. Pirsig)....Fall seven times. Stand up eight. (Japanese proverb)....None who have always been free can understand the terrible fascinating power of the hope of freedom to those who are not free. (Pearl S. Buck)

    My wife subscribes to The Sun. It is a pretty interesting magazine. Often good shorts stories, a ton of bad poetry.

    janasnana, I thought they were good quotes too. I'm glad you enjoyed them. I'm going to post some more later....Kilgore, the inmate who sent these magazines to me is smarter than I am. I believe these magazines are for the "thinking person". Some of this is beyond me, but I agree with you about the poetry.
