Resolution


When we were having our new year's resolution discussion at breakfast yesterday, I didn't mention the one and only resoultion that I make every year.

Many people have talked about it in many ways, and each year - each day, really - I hope that I can make fewer statements and ask more questions.

Judge of a man by his questions rather than by his answers.
-Voltaire

The wise man doesn't give the right answers, he poses the right questions.
-Claude Levi-Strauss.

It is better to know some of the questions than all of the answers.
-James Thurber

Happy New Year.

Outstanding sentiment. Seems to boil down to having a greater degree of humility as we walk the earth. Something I struggle with, so I related to your post.
