Good Morning!
Today is the birthday of Catherine the Great (1729 – 1796) who said:
“I like to praise and reward loudly, to blame quietly.”
and
“Power without a nation's confidence is nothing.”
It is also the birthday of Jerome K. Jerome (1859 – 1927) who said:
“I don't know why it should be, I am sure; but the sight of
another man asleep in bed when I am up, maddens me.”
and
“It is impossible to enjoy idling thoroughly unless one has
plenty of work to do. There is no fun in doing nothing when you have nothing to
do. Wasting time is merely an occupation then, and a most exhausting one.
Idleness, like kisses, to be sweet must be stolen.”
Happy Birthday to Satyajit Ray (1921 – 1992) who said:
“If the theme is simple, you can include a hundred details
that create the illusion of actuality better.”
and
“If you're able to portray universal feelings, universal
relations, emotions, and characters, you can cross certain barriers and reach
out to others.”
