"When one door of happiness closes, another opens;
but often we look so long at the closed door that we do
not see the one which has been opened for us."

"People are like stained-glass windows.
They sparkle and shine when the sun is out,
but when the darkness sets in,
their true beauty is revealed only
if there is light from within."
-Elisabeth Kübler-Ross (1926 -)
