Good Morning! Here are your daily birthday quotations....



Wyatt Earp (1848 – 1929):
“Fast is fine, but accuracy is everything.”





William Jennings Bryan (1860 – 1925):
“Destiny is not a matter of chance; it is a matter of choice. It is not a thing to be waited for, it is a thing to be achieved.”




Earl Warren (1891 – 1974):
“Many people consider the things government does for them to be social progress but they regard the things government does for others as socialism.”

and
“The fantastic advances in the field of electronic communication constitute a greater danger to the privacy of the individual.”




Irving Wallace (1916 – 1990):

“To be one's self, and unafraid whether right or wrong, is more admirable than the easy cowardice of surrender to conformity.”




Philip Roth (1933 - ):
“The only obsession everyone wants: 'love.' People think that in falling in love they make themselves whole? The Platonic union of souls? I think otherwise. I think you're whole before you begin. And the love fractures you. You're whole, and then you're cracked open.”

Good Morning! (The W's are wild today...)




Today is the birthday of Wyatt Earp (1848 – 1929) who said:
“Fast is fine, but accuracy is everything.”





It is also the birthday of William Jennings Bryan (1860 – 1925) who said:
“Destiny is not a matter of chance; it is a matter of choice. It is not a thing to be waited for, it is a thing to be achieved.”





Happy Birthday to Earl Warren (1891 – 1974) who said:
“Many people consider the things government does for them to be social progress but they regard the things government does for others as socialism.”

and
“The fantastic advances in the field of electronic communication constitute a greater danger to the privacy of the individual.”





Birthday greetings to Irving Wallace (1916 – 1990) who said:

“To be one's self, and unafraid whether right or wrong, is more admirable than the easy cowardice of surrender to conformity.”





Finally, a wonderful birthday in retirement to Philip Roth (1933 - ) who said:
“The only obsession everyone wants: 'love.' People think that in falling in love they make themselves whole? The Platonic union of souls? I think otherwise. I think you're whole before you begin. And the love fractures you. You're whole, and then you're cracked open.”
