An Uncertain World
The only certainty is that nothing is certain.
- Pliny the Elder
Expectations Diminish Joy.
- Anonymous
There is no certainty; there is only adventure.
- Roberto Assagioli
Expectation is the root of all heartache.
- William Shakespeare
It is important to expect nothing,
to take every experience,
including the negative ones,
as merely steps on the path,
and to proceed.
- Ram Dass
Prepare for the unknown by studying how others in the past
have coped with the unforeseeable and the unpredictable.
- George S. Patton
Life is lived in the mists -
little is fully visible, less is certain.
Yet rejoice in the unknowing,
and let all of life be a wonderful adventure.
- Jonathan Lockwood Huie
