If you're interested in good quotes, check out G.K. Chesterton. He's up there with C.S. Lewis! Examples: "An adventure is only an inconvenience rightly considered. An inconvenience is an adventure wrongly considered."
"Lying in bed would be an altogether perfect and supreme experience if only one had a colored pencil long enough to draw on the ceiling."
Sue, Superb quotes! Excellent! Thank you...
I got your email, but I've been very naughty and haven't written you back yet.... I'll try to do that asap.....
