On Adam Smith

My husband sumbitted a thesis last week on Adam Smith's Jurisprudence and Moral Sentiments. Congratulations MBA! (Sidenote: this thesis was much easier to edit and review than last summer's thesis on Donald Davidson's theories of truth; epistemology is soemthing we should all consider but it can leave your head spinning!). With Adam Smith on the mind, I'd like to share one of his "lighter" thoughts:

"Nothing is more graceful than habitual cheerfulness, which is always founded upon a peculiar relish for all the little pleasures which common occurrences afford. We readily sympathize with it: it inspires us with the same joy." -Adam Smith.

As I relish my Ginger Tea on this hot summer afternoon, I hope you have a little special something that you've particularly enjoyed today!
