A Great Quote...
It's not often that you find a great quote. The best I think have been from Mark Twain. I love his subtlety. His humor is not for the casual reader...they don't "get it." I guess that's why so many of my friends hated Tom and Huck. Me...I can't get enough of the guy.
Also, I recently read a biography about Lincoln, and that book was chock full of great quotes that weren't from famous speeches or letters. Lincoln was hilarious! I always appreciate a good quote. One that makes you feel good, makes you laugh, makes you think "they are so right!" Well, Tom Perrotta hit the nail on the head with this one, and it totally brightened my day:
"When things don't go well, it helps to think of yourself as a genius and the rest of the world as a bunch of idiots."
Amen to that!
