Hello Mr. Owl

To live content with small means;
To seek elegance rather than luxury,
and refinement rather than fashion;
To be worthy, not respectable;
And wealthy, not rich;
To study hard, think quietly, talk gently, act frankly...
To listen to stars and buds,
To babes and sages, with open heart;
Await occasions, hurry never...
This is my symphony.

William Henry Channing
