Quote of the Day (Somerset Maugham, on Delighting in the World While We Can)


“Nothing in the world is permanent, and we're foolish when we ask anything to last, but surely we're still more foolish not to take delight in it while we have it. If change is of the essence of existence one would have thought it only sensible to make it the premise of our philosophy.” —British man of letters W. Somerset Maugham (1874-1965), The Razor's Edge (1943)
