A Little Bit of Inspiration from Socrates

I decided that it was not wisdom that enabled poets to write their poetry, but a kind of instinct or inspiration, such as you find in seers and prophets who deliver all their sublime messages without knowing in the least what they mean.

Also Available...Thoughts For An Early Morning
I think that I began to love quotes when I began to thumb through my mom's Women's Day magazines. They always devoted an entire page to quotes that were sent in by their readers. They were so thought provoking. I always looked forward to reading them.

This is my second most popular blog. It is filled with videos that I have found during the day. It is so easy to miss the good ones. I hope that you enjoy what I have found!!

Socrates thinks about autumn

Wisdom begins in Wonder
Socrates

I have always loved everything I have ever read about Socrates and when I read this quote, the first thing that occurred to me is that he might think of autumn in the same way.  I was just viewing what Athens was like at this time of the year and indeed, the colors were changing there as well in quite a spectacular way! I wonder what he would have taught us about this season?
