W.A. Bible

Wit is the salt of conversation, not the food.

William Hazlitt

The gull shall whistle in his wake, the blind wave break in fire. He shall fulfill God's utmost will, unknowing His desire, And he shall see old planets pass and alien stars arise, And give the gale his reckless sail in shadow of new skies. Strong lust of gear shall drive him out and hunger arm his hand, To wring his food from a desert nude, his foothold from the sand.

Rudyard Kipling

Let lessons of stern yesterdays . . . be your food, your drink, your rest.

Joseph Seamon Cotter, Jr.
