Part 12. Mother's Sayings
VULGAR LANGUAGE
A swearing man is an ignorant man. -- "We come from a race and family that believe such words to be an indication of weakness in vocabulary and intellectual emptiness".
STUBBORNNESS
Two goats met on a narrow bridge- Neither would yield-Both were DROWNED!!
MY OWN THOUGHTS
The human brain is the only container of which it can be said - the more you put into it the more it will hold.
Be supple about things immaterial (don't fuss over trifles).
Ethel Barrymore on her 70th birthday - "A good life is like a good play, it has to have a satisfying and exciting Third Act."
The apple doesn't fall far from the tree.
From Robert Frost -
"Never ask of money spent
Where the spender thinks it went-
Nobody was ever meant
To remember or invent
What he did with every cent!!"
