Brains in Your Head, Feet in Your Shoes

"Our philosophies must be rewritten to remove them from the domain of words and "ideas," and to plant their roots firmly in the earth."
-   William Vogt


"Better well done than well said."
-  Benjamin Franklin


"If you are seeking creative ideas, go out walking.  Angels whisper to a man when he goes for a walk."
-   Raymond Inmon


"You have brains in your head. You have feet in your shoes.  You can steer yourself any direction you choose."
-  Dr. Seuss


"Above all do not lose your desire to walk.  Everyday I walk myself into a state of well being and walk away from every illness.  I have walked myself into my best thoughts and I know of no thought so burdensome that one cannot walk away from it.  But by sitting still, and the more one sits still, the closer one comes to feeling ill ... if one keeps on walking everything will be alright."
-   Soren Kierkegaard.


I walk 3.6 miles on a quiet country lane in the morning every Friday, Saturday, Sunday, and Monday.  This weekend, I enjoyed listening to upbeat popular music and some lectures by Alan Watts while during some of my walks.
