QUOTE OF THE WEEK ... from the Analects of Confucius

Only two chapters in, but a very engaging book. In talking about his round-the-world trip when he was young, he peppers his travelogue with quotes from different countries ...

"The man who moves a mountain starts by carrying away small stones."   Confucius

Of course, when he was in Japan, we got this unattributed native quote: "A wise man climbs Fuji once. A fool climbs it twice."
