Quando un amico chiede non c’e domani.  
When a friend calls there is no tomorrow. G. Herbert  

La felicita e nascosta dappertutto, basta scovaria.  
Love lies hidden all around. All you need to do is find it.  Anonimo

Il bacio fa piu giovane il cuore e cancella l’eta.  
A kiss rejuvenates the heart and cancels out age.  Anonimo

Bridges are crossed one step at a time. So step out over that chasm already.

The human race has one really effective weapon, and that is laughter.  Whenever you 
find yourself on the side of the majority, it's time to pause and reflect.  Mark 
Twain
