Today is the birthday of the following people:
Sarah Silverman (1970 - ):
“Unvisited tombstones, unread diaries, and erased video game high-score rankings are three of the most potent symbols of mankind's pathetic and fruitless attempts at immortality.”
Rex Stout (1886 –
1975):
“MY rule is never to
be rude to anyone unless you mean it.”
and
“I try to know what I
need to know. I make sure to know what I want to know.”
Walter Alston (1911 –
1984):
"Look at
misfortune the same way you look at success - Don't Panic! Do your best and
forget the consequences."
Woody Allen (1935 - ):
“I'm not afraid of
death; I just don't want to be there when it happens.”
and
“Eighty percent of
success is showing up.”
and
“Life is full of
misery, loneliness, and suffering - and it's all over much too soon.”
Richard Pryor (1940 –
2005):
“I believe the
ability to think is blessed. If you can think about a situation, you can deal
with it. The big struggle is to keep your head clear enough to think.”
