Quote of the day
The moving finger writes; and, having writ,
Moves on: nor all thy piety nor wit
Shall lure it back to cancel half a line,
Nor all thy tears wash out a word of it.
—The Rubaiyat of Omar Khayyam

Hi David,
this reminds me of one of my favourite quotes:
„Watch your thoughts, for they become words.
Watch your words, for they become actions.
Watch your actions, for they become habits.
Watch your habits, for they become your character.
Watch your character, for it becomes your fate. “
This is fairly well known and from the Talmud.
Yours,
Stefan

I’ve not heard that one before, but I rather like it.
