In life, we can either let our experiences make us bitter, or we can channel that feeling towards being a good example in order to improve things.

I was looking at some quotes and found some pretty interesting ones.

I love stephen wright's line: "I bought a map of new york with a scale of one inch equals one inch. It took me three weeks to fold it back up."

Masmida, thanks for mentioning.

Parsha Potpourri said...

Thanks for explaining. Now that you mentioned it, Steven Wright's name sounded familiar. I went back to where I thought I once saw it, and I was right. Another great quote of his:

I have the world's largest collection of seashells. I keep it on all the beaches of the world... perhaps you've seen it.

FrumGirl said...

Very tongue-in-cheek.

Parsha, you're welcome. Thanks for adding another one.

Fg, I guess. But sarcasm is his way.
