Thomas Bailey Aldrich 11 November 1836-19 March 1907:

- Identity -
SOMEWHERE—in desolate wind-swept space—
In Twilight-land—in No-man's land—
Two hurrying Shapes met face to face,
And bade each other stand.

Shuddering in the gloaming light.
"I know not," said the second Shape,
"I only died last night!"

HA HA HA! I love it!

HA HA HA! Al Bundy in Married With Children trying to queue jump and the fat lady in front would say ''get at the back!'' and Al would look her up and down with her rather ''ahem, fuller figure'' and reply ''I can't! I've only got 1/2 tank of gas!''

" Wounds can become wisdom with the right perspective. " I don't know who wrote it, it was given to me by my sister written on a card !

Groucho Marks:

"Just because you're paranoid it doesn't mean they're not out to get you."

One of my favourites too.

Life is what happens and what we do'
Not what should or might have been.

Taken from The Guardian newspaper many years ago.
These words have seen me through many of life's crises.

Yes, it's really clever isn't it Indigo. I think it was Groucho who also said "No good deed goes unpunished".

Once seen on a Scottish Kirk notice board:
I'm happier noo when I'm no happy Than I was when I was happy

"Live, laugh, love" (not really!!!!)
