Re: Quote of the Day


Thar’s only two possibilities: Thar is life out there in the universe which is smarter than we are, or we’re the most intelligent life in the universe. Either way, it’s a mighty sobering thought. ~ Walt Kelly

Re: Quote of the Day


The New Frontier of which I speak is not a set of promises — it is a set of challenges. It sums up not what I intend to offer the American people, but what I intend to ask of them.

    * John Kennedy, Acceptance Speech as the Democratic presidential nominee made on July 15th 1960

Re: Quote of the Day


and so true

Had he gotten the right men to run his country history might have told us a different tale

"Old anchormen, you see, don't fade away; they just keep coming back for more. And that's the way it is: Friday, March 6, 1981. I'll be away on assignment, and Dan Rather will be sitting in here for the next few years. Good night."

- Walter Cronkite, CBS Evening News Farewell

"For how many thousands of years now have we humans been what we insist on calling "civilized?" And yet, in total contradiction, we also persist in the savage belief that we must occasionally, at least, settle our arguments by killing one another."
-Walter Cronkite address to the UN

Glad you liked them

"Today is only one day in all the days that will ever be. But what will happen in all the other days that ever come can depend on what you do today. It's been that way all this year. It's been that way so many times. All of war is that way." ~ Ernest Hemingway born on July 21
