| Quote of the Day
"Our real blessings often appear to us in the shape of pains, losses and disappointments, but let us have patience and we soon shall see them in their proper figures."
– Joseph Addison
About Joseph Addison
English politician and writer Joseph Addison is remembered as a cofounder, along with his friend Richard Steele, of The Spectator, one of the first magazines to cover literature and manners. He was born in 1672 in Wiltshire. He spent four years traveling in Europe, studying politics and writing poetry, and became a Commissioner of Appeals on his return to England. His shyness made public office difficult. His most famous work is the play Cato, a tragedy about ancient Rome. He died in 1719. CANCER FREE!!! April 9, 1998-April 9, 2023-I AM A SURVIVOR!!! | |

| Quote of the Day
"We cannot live for ourselves alone. Our lives are connected by a thousand invisible threads, and along these sympathetic fibers, our actions run as causes and return to us as results."
– Herman Melville
About Herman Melville
American author Herman Melville is best known for his epic whaling novel, Moby-Dick, which wasn't recognized as a masterpiece until after his death. He was born in New York in 1819. At age 20, he went to sea on a whaling ship. His seafaring adventures included time with cannibals in the Marquesas Islands, the basis for his successful novel Typee. His later, more philosophical, novels were not as well received as his early adventure yarns, and he died in obscurity in 1891. CANCER FREE!!! April 9, 1998-April 9, 2023-I AM A SURVIVOR!!! | |

| I got a few my great grandma always told me. Men are just bigger boys with more expensive toys. and Men never grow up they just get bigger and more stubborn. And my favorite is the main reason men get married is cause their mamma's get tired of raising them so they have to get a wife to raise them. |

| Stephen King said the real reason people get married is that nobody wants to be alone in bed when the monster finally comes out of the closet. :thankyou: | |

| Love these quotes! Rose Red, do you know who the author is of your quote? On the Dr. Quinn forum, a lot of people have quotes in their signature, with the author listed, and I'd really like to use yours! It reminds me of "Richest Man" too, so it would be like a little piece of Little House is over there with me in that forum too! “Not all of us can do great things. But we can do small things with great love.”

Quote of the Day"Within us all there are wells of thought and dynamos of energy which are not suspected until emergencies arise."
– Thomas J. Watson About Thomas J. Watson American businessman Thomas J. Watson built IBM into a Fortune 500 company. He was born in rural New York in 1874. He sold sewing machines, musical instruments, and cash registers before becoming president of the Computing-Tabulating-Recording company, which merged with IBM in 1924. His paternalistic business style was a model for later Japanese management, and his motto, "THINK," became his company's slogan. Under his leadership, IBM funded the first computers. He died in 1956.
