....You don't? Well, sorry to disappoint. Back in the 17th century Britain there was a Cavalier who was also a poet by the name of Richard Lovelace. One of his more famous lines is - 'Stone walls do not a prison make, nor iron bars a cage.' Was he right? Well, those stones and bars can do a pretty good impression of a prison if you happen to be trapped inside them.
Still, though, such impediments are as nothing compared to the mental and emotional limitations that we impose upon ourselves from time to time.
Have a heart that never hardens, a temper that never tires,
a touch that never hurts. (Charles Dickens)
