Quote by William Shakespeare

When most I wink, then do my eyes best see

When most I wink, then do my eyes best see

Summary

This quote suggests that sometimes, when we close our eyes or look away from something, we are able to truly see and understand it. It implies that in moments of reflection or introspection, when we are not distracted by the external world, we are able to gain deeper insight and clarity. By metaphorically "winking" or shutting our eyes to external distractions, we are able to open our "inner eyes" and perceive things more clearly. It highlights the importance of taking moments of introspection and reflection in order to gain a deeper understanding of ourselves and the world around us.

I think that age as a number is not nearly as important as health. You can be in poor health and be pretty miserable at 40 or 50. If you're in good health, you can enjoy things into your 80s.

Hope is a state of mind, not of the world. Hope, in this deep and powerful sense, is not the same as joy that things are going well, or willingness to invest in enterprises that are obviously heading for success, but rather an ability to work for something because it is good.

I do not believe one can settle how much we ought to give. I am afraid the only safe rule is to give more than we can spare. In other words, if our expenditure on comforts, luxuries, amusements, etc, is up to the standard common among those with the same income as our own, we are probably giving away too little. If our charities do not at all pinch or hamper us, I should say they are too small. There ought to be things we should like to do and cannot do because our charitable expenditure excludes them.
