Life
Klaus J. Joehle spent the first nine years of his life in Black Forest (Schwarzwald), Germany near big Titisee lake. He recalls some of his adventures of that time in Living on Love -- The Shameful Secret book.
At the age of 9 Klaus was sent to live in Canada with his uncle where he had to adjust to the new circumstances.
When Klaus worked as a dairy farmer he managed to surprise everybody with the fact that his cows could produce much milk without losing weight.
Also he worked as a contractor, artist (painter) and entrepreneur. In recent years Klaus enjoyed working as a tiler. In 2007 Klaus opened a tiling/mosaic shop called "Bad Boys Mosaics".

Famous quotes containing the word life:
“Bourgeois society is infected by monomania: the monomania of accounting. For it, the only thing that has value is what can be counted in francs and centimes. It never hesitates to sacrifice human life to figures which look well on paper, such as national budgets or industrial balance sheets.”
—Simone Weil (1909–1943)
“A woman can get marries and her life does change. And a man can get married and his life changes. But nothing changes life as dramatically as having a child. . . . In this country, it is a particular experience, a rite of passage, if you will, that is unsupported for the most part, and rather ignored. Somebody will send you a couple of presents for the baby, but people do not acknowledge the massive experience to the parents involved.”
—Dana Raphael (20th century)
“Nothing defines the quality of life in a community more clearly than people who regard themselves, or whom the consensus chooses to regard, as mentally unwell.”
—Renata Adler (b. 1938)
