Good Morning! Here are your daily birthday quotations...
Nicholson Baker (1957
- ):
“Books: a beautifully
browsable invention that needs no electricity and exists in a readable form no
matter what happens.”
and
“You can tell it's a
poem because it's swimming in a little gel pack of white space. That shows it's
a poem.”
and
“I woke up thinking a
very pleasant thought. there is lots left in the world to read.”
and
“Poetry is prose in
slow motion.”
Kenny Loggins (1948 -
):
“Love the girl who
holds the world in a paper cup.
Drink it up.
Love her and she'll
bring you luck.
And if you find she
helps your mind, better take her home.
Don't you live alone.
Try to earn what
lovers own.”
Jann Wenner (1946 - ):
“It's a daily miracle
to see a child grow and develop all the senses and language and speech and
faculties, and they're so much fun and they're so delightful and they're so
innocent. It just stops your heart every time; I can't get enough of it.”
William Peter Blatty
(1928 - ):
“We mourn the
blossoms of May because they are to whither; but we know that May is one day to
have its revenge upon November, by the revolution of that solemn circle which
never stops---which teaches us in our height of hope, ever to be sober, and in
our depth of desolation, never to despair.”
Zora Neale Hurston
(1891 – 1960):
“Sometimes, I feel
discriminated against, but it does not make me angry. It merely astonishes me.
How can any deny themselves the pleasure of my company? It’s beyond me.”
and
“I have known the joy
and pain of friendship. I have served and been served. I have made some good
enemies for which I am not a bit sorry. I have loved unselfishly, and I have
fondled hatred with the red-hot tongs of Hell. That's living.”
