They enrich our lives, allow us to communicate thoughts to others, and sometimes, last for generations.

William George Jordan was a writer, editor, and speaker. He recognized the importance of measured approaches to things, to remaining calm in the face of inflammatory things. He published a book, available online in PDF for free, called The Majesty of Calmness. In that book, he describes calmness as the ultimate goal and compares it to a Heron's calmness in the face of an attacking Eagle. Be the Heron, not the Eagle.
