slow week

Apr 26, 2007 14:12

i was earlier writing an entry on what a slow week it had been, when the power cut off in the office. Case-in-point. 
One extended lunch later, i was heartened by closing a minor sale i had been working on for the past week. Helps me on the route to my happy place.

I spent some time this week looking at quotes for some articles i was writing, and on the way picked up some of these quotes which meant a lot to me - they seemed to jump out of the page....

Doubt is a pain too lonely to know that Faith is his twin brother  Kahlil Gibran

Could I have but a line a century hence crediting a contribution to the advance of peace, I would yield every honor which has been accorded by war  Douglas MacArthur

A man is rich in proportion to the number of things he can afford to let alone  Henry David Thoreau

and some funny ones....

I believe in equality for everyone, except reporiters and photographers  Mahatma Gandhi
