Civilization begins with order, grows with liberty, and dies with chaos.

Love the pic.

It reminds me of the Chinese proverb that we are born screaming, live moaning and die disappointed.

Well, the outlook would not have to be such defeatist, if people sticked to following advice [Trying to translate a Chinese saying]:
When you were born, you cried,
and all around you were happy.
Live so that when you leave the world
everybody cries and you alone smiles.

The peace of the night.

That picture manages to be threatening and hopeful at the same time so I suppose it's much like life.

That seems to be the way of things, if not chaos then decay

Welshcakes - Thank You :-)

Ellee - I hope I don't die disappointed ;-)

Sean - Nice quote :-) From me to you a day late, but wishing you the peace of the night too xx

Rinkly Rimes - It was the middle of a series of 3 photos, so yes there is hope :-)
