Things we have learnt along the way ---
//
The most destructive force in the universe is gossip.
You can tell a lot about a man by the way he handles these three things: a rainy day, lost luggage, and tangled Christmas tree lights.
The real art of conversation is not only to say the right thing in the right place, but also to leave unsaid the wrong thing at the tempting moment.
It is bad to suppress laughter; it goes back down and spreads to your hips.
If you must choose between two evils, pick the one you've never tried before.
A person who is nice to you, but rude to the waiter, is not a nice person. (This is very important. It never fails.)

Take too many pictures, laugh too much and love like you've never been hurt because everyh sixty seconds you spend upset is a minute of happiness you'll never get back! True, true!

We leven in een wereld van veel en overvloed. We beseffen nauwelijks dat dit het geval is en zijn ook niet in staat dit te veel te herverdelen. "Standing knee deep in a river an dying of thirst"
