Quote of the day

"I think everything in life is art.
what you do. how you dress,
the way you love someone,
and how you talk. your smile
and your personality. what you
believe in, and all your dreams.
the way you drink your tea,
how you decorate your home,
or party. your grocery list, the
food you make. how your
writing looks.and the way you
feel.

Life is art."
 
Part of Rumsfeld's speech as Sec of Defense

"There are known knowns. These are things we know that we know. There are known unknowns. That is to say, there are things that we know we don't know. But there are also unknown unknowns. There are things we don't know we don't know."

Donald Rumsfeld

That quote from the former secretary of defence seems to make a bit more sense nowadays!

Another quote my father used to use, or dreamt up was; "Most folks are alright when the bit of bad is pared back".

Here's one written by my wonderful late husband:

A man can't spit
on his own floor
or drink or smoke
or chew.
If he can't cuss
or deal a hand,
then what's a man
to do?
When he goes home
he wipes his feet
pink ruffles all
he sees,
Is there a place
men can go
do as they damn
well please?

I read this in a newspaper printed in the Irish republic, sent in by a reader in Sligo:

"I thought I knew what the future held.
I took for granted it would go according to my plan.
I hoped that all my dreams would come true. I thought there would be time.
Now I know that I do not know what the future holds.
Now I know the only time I have is now.
Now I know that my dreams have already come true - because I am here, still hoping.
Now I know what I say and do shapes the future.
I promise in the future I will not take anything for granted.
I hope I remember my promise"
