Quotes

Even if I knew that tomorrow the world would go to pieces, I would still plant my apple tree. Martin Luther ************************* There are three kinds of men. The one that learns by reading. The few who learn by observation. The rest of them have to pee on the electric fence for themselves. Will Rogers ************************* Whether it's the best of times or the worst of times, it is the only time we got. Art Buchwald *************************** There is only one way to happiness and that is to cease worrying about things which are beyond the power of our will. Epictetus ************************** They say that patriotism is the last refuge To which a scoundrel clings Steal a little and they throw you in jail Steal a lot and they make you king. - Sweetheart like you - Bob Dylan
