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!!"
