Simple Things Best.

It retain youth you must cultivate
and preserve your power to enjoy sim

become complex and expensive the
soul becomes stiff and cramped. To
love simple food and drink, simple
methods Of play, simple speech, and.
above all. the manifest simplicities Of
nature, makes red blood. Resist the
inroads of pessimism. It means the
twilight of the soul and the empty
