I remember facilitating a wonderful verbal description of this painting.

[Gallerie degli Uffizi @UffiziGalleries]

"La cornice è una finestra aperta sul mondo" scriveva Leon Battista Alberti nel 1436

Le sale della #GalleriaPalatina custodiscono molti mondi, racchiusi da maestose cornici. Venite a conoscerli!

La Galleria e i musei di #PalazzoPitti aprono alle 13.30 dal martedì alla domenica

Some personal news from me:

[Dalai Lama @DalaiLama]

We are self-centred and selfish, but we need to be wisely selfish, not foolishly so. If we neglect others, we too lose. We have to support others. We can educate people to understand that the best way to fulfil their own interest is to be concerned about the welfare of others.

God is good! My surgeon says all the cancer is gone in breast and lymph nodes. I will undergo radiation in a few weeks to zap any cancer seeds. Thanks to everyone who has supported me during this trial. #breastcancer

[Dr. Jill Biden @DrBiden]

As we come together offering light and the ringing of bells, to those grieving loved ones lost to COVID-19, always know you are in our hearts.

[Dalai Lama @DalaiLama]

We must find secular ways to cultivate warm-heartedness — to educate ourselves about inner values. The source of a happy life is within us. Troublemakers in many parts of the world are often well educated, so it’s not just education we need. We must pay attention to inner values.

[Joe Biden @JoeBiden]

It’s long past time we pay teachers what they deserve.

The work they do is of extreme national importance — and their salaries should reflect that.

[NYC Parks @NYCParks]

Good morning from Central Park!

[Fran Megarry @FranMegarry]

Grateful for my surgeons, oncologists, radiologist and all during these difficult COVID days. These dedicated people need to be first to receive the vaccine.

.@morningmika to @WSJ: You owe the future First Lady an apology

[Dr. Jill Biden @DrBiden]

Together, we will build a world where the accomplishments of our daughters will be celebrated, rather than diminished.

[Cathedral of St. John the Divine @StJohnDivineNYC]

Our Carols for the Community event this afternoon was interrupted by an armed individual, who set off a round of gunfire into the air from our front steps. Thankfully, no injuries were reported among the attendees and the suspect is in custody.

One of the things you learn during a pandemic as a Congressperson is that flowers, in addition to sparking joy, can really help liven up the background of your video shots. So I put some work into our family’s garden this weekend with my daughter Betsy 🌸🌺

[Andrew Neil @afneil]

She was three years old. We can never forget. Or let it happen again. Never. Just stare at that picture. Must go. Some dirt in my eye, I think.

18 years ago, we lost an American hero: Paul Wellstone. He was a friend, a mentor, and a champion of the people. 

He lived and served by these simple, yet powerful, words: “We all do better when we all do better.”
