Art is long, life is short

there is so much knowledge (or skill) to acquire that one lifetime is insufficient.

"There is so much to learn and appreciate about art that a lifetime is insufficient. As goes the saying, 'art is long, life is short.'"

Long Island

Long Island is an island easy of New York City. We have the north and south shore. North tends to be richer whereas the South shore tends to be poorer. I am from the North Shore and I live in a beautiful house in a beautiful place that I wouldn't trade for anything. The cost of living on LI is extremely high but it's so worth it. There is always a beach nearby which is great. And we can't forget about the famous Hamptons. The Hamptons consist of very high end real estate and New York's elite. I personally own 2 houses in the Hamptons. One is located in Southampton - where the old money is. And the other is located in East Hampton. Both towns are absolutely stunning and I will say this straight out - the truth is that yes, Long Island does have a ton of wealthy people and a lot of towns are very rich and glitzy. I mean who wouldn't want to live in a place like Long Island. I particularly love the Hamptons because that is our summer vacation spot. During the summer the Hamptons are flooded with Upper-East Siders of NYC. I can definitely say that a lot of Long Islander's are Upper-East Siders that live in a beautiful place rather than the city. (I love the city too) We also own a house in Florida, and I have to say that nothing compares to the glamourous and wealthy lifestyle of a Long Islander.

"You're from Long Island?"
"Yes I am"
"You must be rich!"
