Wisdom

I picked up this quote from an interview with the actress Maggie Gyllenhaal:

Before she even started in the movie business, she says, she was wise to it. "One thing I learned, from watching my parents, is that you can be on top of the world and then the next year you can be nowhere. And then, later, you're interesting again; and then, suddenly, you're not. I watched that happen to them, and I watched it hurt them. I think I'm a bit armed by having seen that."

Indeed wise words that I will heed as I start back upon the path.
