November

“The last days of November write their own pages.”

~ Keith Wynn

Remembrance Day

“There can be no dedication to Canada’s future without a knowledge of its past.”

—John Diefenbaker, 13th Prime Minister of Canada

“Pick the day. Enjoy it – to the hilt.

The day as it comes. People as they come…

The past, I think, has helped me appreciate the present, and I don’t want to spoil any of it by fretting about the future.”

~Audrey Hepburn (b. 4 May 1929 – d. 20 January 1993)

“Without a function, we cease to be.
So, I will write till I die.”

~ Farley Mowat (b. May 12, 1921 – d. May 6, 2014)

Lest we forget!

“She had always wanted words, she loved them; grew up on them.

Words gave her clarity, brought reason, shape.”

~ Michael Ondaatje, The English Patient
