Clouds come floating into my life, no longer to carry rain or usher storm, but to add color to my sunset sky.
About this theme: Life
Life is the broadest theme in any collection of quotations and therefore the most uneven. The same heading holds Seneca's letter on the shortness of time and a sentence from a greetings card. The difference usually comes down to whether a line asks something of the reader or flatters them.
