Ooooo! I love that one! grin

This is from a book I just read: "A Civil Campaign" by Lois McMaster Bujold -
"Reputation is what other people know about you. Honor is what you know about yourself."

And then the following statment:
"There is no more hollow feeling than to stand with your honor shattered at your feet while soaring public reward wraps you in rewards. That's soul-destroying. The other way around is merely very, very irritating."

oooo! I love that first one, especially! I have often felt the same about it. I don't know how people can stand having only the appearance of honor, when they know inside they've done something wrong and just not gotten caught.

I wanted a perfect ending. Now I've learned, the hard way, that some poems don't rhyme, and some stories don't have a clear beginning, middle, and end. Life is about not knowing, having to change, taking the moment and making the best of it, without knowing what's going to happen next. Delicious Ambiguity.[Gilda Radner]


Have a blessed day-

laugh that was nice. Gilda was special.


In recognition of my television problems, i've dug up some quotes about television....

"Television is the first truly democratic culture - the first culture available to everybody and entirely governed by what the people want. The most terrifying thing is what people do want."

-- Clive Barnes

"I hate television. I hate it as much as I hate peanuts. But I can't stop eating peanuts."

-- Orson Welles


"Entertainment is a thing of the past, today we've got television."

-- Archie Bunker

Here are a couple from the bulletin board at my desk:

"Whether you think you can, or think you cannot, you're always right!" Napoleon Hill

"Give someone a fish and they will have food for a day. Teach them how to fish and they will have food for life." Unknown

"God doesn't require us to succeed; he only requires that you try." Mother Teresa
