An Italian Proverb

   "Se ogni uomo avrebbe spazzato la sua porta di casa la città sarebbe presto essere puliti."

  "If every man would sweep his own doorstep the city would soon be clean."

     G. Torriano, 1666

      While looking through a collection of poems I had written when I was around ten, I found this quote, written in someone else's handwriting.  I saw it and had to post it on my blog.
       I was going to write a long blog entry about the meaning behind it, but I thought the quote itself was sufficient
