Favorite Quote
A person who is a master in the art of living makes little distinction
between their work and their play, their labor and their leisure, their mind
and their body, their education and their recreation, their love and their
religion. They hardly know which is which and simply pursue their vision of
excellence and grace, whatever they do, leaving others to decide whether
they are working or playing. To them they are always doing both.
-L.P. Jacks
