Today's Words of Wisdom - October 3, 2015

Today is the birthday of the following people:



Greg Proops (1959 - ):
“Don't yell at people. Stand up for what's right. Put yourself in the other person's place. Respect women. Don't take no for an answer. Laugh at yourself. Don't believe what you are told. Fall in love.”

and
“Honesty and unpopular opinions are the toughest sell in a country with an irony-deficiency.”



Thomas Wolfe (1900 - 1938):
“The whole conviction of my life now rests upon the belief that loneliness, far from being a rare and curious phenomenon, is the central and inevitable fact of human existence.”

and
“What I had to face, the very bitter lesson that everyone who wants to write has got to learn, was that a thing may in itself be the finest piece of writing one has ever done, and yet have absolutely no place in the manuscript one hopes to publish.”




Gore Vidal (1925 - 2012):
“The unfed mind devours itself.”

and
“How marvelous books are, crossing worlds and centuries, defeating ignorance and, finally, cruel time itself.”




Gwen Stefani (1969 - ):

“This s*** is bananas. B-A-N-A-N-A-S.”
