Geeze Tom, when you said quote, I thought you meant quote - not a soliloquy.

Now, I'm gonna have to think of another quote. LOL

Voltaire

Another favourite quote:

"We ask ourselves: 'Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented or fabulous?' Well, actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small doesn't serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We were born to make manifest the glory of God within us. It is not just in some of us - it is in everyone. And as we let our light shine we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear our presence automatically liberates others."

Nelson Mandela

a nice quote to help me live by:

"never take credit for the work of others, but rather give credit where it is due... never pass up the chance to say 'I love you', since true love is such a rare commodity... never tell needless lies, since the little obstacles it creates are easily repaired after the truth is told"

- author anonymous, just read this, thought it nice
(I do pretty well with these rules in life, not perfect)

I really like John Grisham as an author... in 30 years he will scarcely be known perhaps, but I love his works... just finished his "Partner" which was very enjoyable... now reading "Testament" which so far is same

whenever I hear Whitney Houston sing "I will always love you", I get very misty tingly and cannot talk right for a couple minutes... in 30 years she will scarcely be known perhaps, but that song is the most moving I have heard in a decade... on the classical side, when I hear Bocelli's "Con Te Partiro" same reaction... they play it on HBO's "Sopranos" and I just laugh
