Control Stress

"Men for the sake of getting a living forget to live." --Margaret Fuller "Brain cells create ideas. Stress kills brain cells. Stress is not a good idea." --Frederick Saunders "There is more to life than increasing its speed." --Mohandas K. Gandhi "A poor life is with full of care, We have no time to stand and stare." --William Henry Davies "Things could be a lot worse, the stress of the situation always could be worse, but I am alive and I have a lot to be thankful for - so I shall not waste my days with stress and frustrations - Life is too short" --Catherine Pulsifer
