Thoughts by Lewis Mumford

May you find inspiration in these thoughts and quotes by Lewis Mumford from my large Daily Inspiration library of inspiring quotes and inspirational words.

It is the source of power.
Take time to play.
It is the source of perpetual youth.
Take time to read.
It is the fountain of wisdom.

Take time to be friendly.
It is the road to happiness.
Take time to give.
It is too short a day to be selfish.
Take time to work.
It is the price of success.
