Thirty days hath September

"life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well-preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming--WOW, what a ride!"

Men are like chocolates, avoid the nutty ones and don't pick up the ones others have tried and put back.

I wonder what Shakespeare would have said, in regards to my quote...

[HistorianChick]

A while back, I played Marilla in the play Anne of Green Gables. I've always loved the books by L.M.Montgomery and shall add a few of her famous quotes here:

"Good friends are always together in spirit." (Like that K?)

“I'm not a bit changed—not really. I'm only just pruned down and branched out. The real me—back here—is just the same. It won't make a bit of difference where I go or how much I change outwardly; at heart I shall always be your little Anne, who will love you and Matthew and dear Green Gables more and better every day of her life.”

"All the Beyond was hers with its possibilities lurking rosily in the oncoming years—each year a rose of promise to be woven into an immortal chaplet."

I'll add more later but these shall do for now. :)

I wonder what Shakespeare would have said, in regards to my quote....

He would have said:

"There's daggers in men's smiles". - (Hamlet, Act II, Scene III)

"Men of few words are the best men" . - (King Henry V, Act III, Scene II)

Hamlet:
What a piece of work is a man, how noble in reason, how
Infinite in faculties, in form and moving how express and
Admirable, in action how like an angel, in apprehension how like
A god! The beauty of the world, the paragon of animals—and yet,
To me, what is this quintessence of dust? Man delights not me—
Nor woman neither, though by your smiling you seem to say so.

:D

How come I am not the least bit surprised you were able to pull those out of the sky?

Shakespeare would be proud and honored to have such a wonderful PR rep!

Of course, we do admit that present company (those in this thread) are excluded... ;)

We love you, "M"!! :D

From a doctor I saw in urgent care tonight. Wow, she was such a good doctor that actually spent time with her patients.

"Happiness and acceptance comes from within. I do not look for it from the world. As long as I know I did my best to serve you I am happy."

Urgent care! Thoughts and prayers are being sent your way.

The quote is indeed a great one. "The World can't give it to you and the World can't take it away!" :p This comes from a song by the way but seemed appropriate for this post. :)

On a lighter note...

When buying a used car, punch the buttons on the radio. If all the stations are rock and roll, there's a good chance the transmission is shot.

Past the seeker as he prayed came the crippled and the beggar and the beaten and seeing them... he cried, "Great God, how is it that a loving creator can see such things and yet do nothing about them?" God said, "I did do something I made you."
