Charles Scott Sherrington Quote

A rainbow every morning who would pause
to look at? The wonderful which comes often or is plentifully about us is soon taken for granted. Th at is practical enough. It allows us to get on with life. But it may stultify if it
cannot on occasion be thrown off. To recapture now and then childhood's wonder, is to secure a driving force
for occasional grown-up thoughts.
