Creative Quotations for Sept. 23 from Euripedes

FRANK's Creative Quotations is a FREE website at
http://www.shentel.net/baertracks devoted to 
carefully selected sets of quotations from over 800 famous 
people.  Each set links five quotations from a famous person 
to five basic components of creativity and success:

  1-> FORAGING, collecting information;
  2-> REFLECTING, generating lots of ideas;
  3-> ADOPTING, embracing an idea;
  4-> NURTURING, improving your idea; and
  5-> KNUCKLING DOWN, never giving up.

Biographical information about each famous person is also 
provided -- year of birth and death, day of birth, nationality,
profession, and why the person is considered famous.
 
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Here's a sampling of FRANK's Creative Quotations from 
Euripides (480-406 BC) born on Sep 23
Greek dramatist. He wrote approximately 90 tragedies, 
e.g., "Medea" and "Electra." 

On Foraging:
Cleverness is not wisdom.

On Reflecting:
Among mortals second thoughts are wisest.

On Adopting:
Slight not what is near, while aiming at what is far.

On Nurturing:
If we could be twice young and twice old, we could correct all our
mistakes.

On Knuckling Down:
Judge a tree from its fruit; not from the leaves.
