Today's Famous Quotes
Charles Rosin
There's something intrinsically therapeutic about choosing to spend your time in a wide, open park- like setting that non-golfers can never truly understand.
George Carlin
The very existence of flamethrowers proves that some time, somewhere, someone said to themselves, "You know, I want to set those people over there on fire, but I�m just not close enough to get the job done."

Joyce Kilmer
I think that I shall never see A poem lovely as a tree.
Virgil

Granville Hicks

E. B. White
