much in the same vein as "song for the day" thought I'd get a "quote a day" dealy going. Again give the source and if it has some signifigance or if you have little a custom version of your own qualify it and tell us the story.
After this we'll do "deep thoughts", "don't you hate it when...", "my most embarrassing moment", and "erotic poetry"

because, it's true,... particularly when you do what I do.

Why does monosyllabic have so many syllables?
And why is abbreviate is such a long word?

And at each window bar
He shouted to the ones inside
Doing OK so far!

"Rakasta yksinäisyyttä ja hiljaisuutta;siten löydät suuren levon ja hyvän omantunnon.Missä näet paljon väkeä,siellä on usein melua ja sydän pahasti hajalla."
T. Kempiäinen
(Love lonelyness and silence;that is how you find the peace and the good conscience.Where you see lot of people, there is often noise and a badly broken-heart.

Well, as spring is upon us I wanted to share this quote about the moody season...
If there comes a little thaw,
Still the air is chill and raw,
Here and there a patch of snow,
Dirtier than the ground below,
Dribbles down a marshy flood;
Ankle-deep you stick in mud In the meadows while you sing,
"This is Spring."
By:Christopher Pearce Cranch
Pretty much what The Faroe Islands have been like for a while now...

"Perseverance is a great element of success. If you only knock long enough and loud enough at the gate, you are sure to wake up somebody."
(Henry Wadsworth Longfellow)
I love this comparison with knocking at a gate. It makes it easy : If you really want something, just give yourself every chance of getting it. Never give up.
I need perseverance, especially now.
