YOUR DAILY INSIGHT // As Told By: Tallulah Bankhead

If I had my life to live again, I'd make the same mistakes, only sooner.

YOUR DAILY INSIGHT // As Told By: Elie Wiesel

YOUR DAILY INSIGHT // As Told By: Friedrich Nietzche

And so onwards, along a path of wisdom with a hearty tread, a hearty confidence.

YOUR DAILY INSIGHT // As Told By: Jack Kerouac

YOUR DAILY INSIGHT // As Told By: Albert Camus
