Quote by Doris Lessing (1919-2013)

• Laughter is by definition healthy.

• That is what learning is. You suddenly understand something you've understood all your life, but in a new way.

• All sanity depends on this: that it should be a delight to feel heat strike the skin, a delight to stand upright, knowing the bones are moving easily under the flesh.

• Think wrongly if you please, but in all cases think for yourself.

• The great secret that all old people share is that you really haven't changed in 70 or 80 years. Your body changes, but you don't change at all.

• In university they don't tell you that the greater part of the law is learning to tolerate fools.
