Strawberry Moon in June (6/26/10)

A perfect summer day is when the sun is shining, the breeze is blowing, the birds are singing,
and the lawn mower is broken. ~James Dent

If a June night could talk, it would probably boast it invented romance.
~Bern Williams

Summer set lip to earth's bosom bare,
And left the flushed print in a poppy there.
~Francis Thompson

Strawberry Moon in June (6/26/10)


The faults of a superior person are like the sun and moon. They have their faults, and everyone sees them; they change and everyone looks up to them.

Confucius

If you shoot for the stars and hit the moon, it's OK. But you've got to shoot for something. A lot of people don't even shoot.

Confucius

The day, water, sun, moon, night - I do not have to purchase these things with money.

Plautus

Too scared to write my own stuff


I like nonsense, it wakes up the brain cells.  Fantasy is a necessary ingredient in living, it's a way of looking at life through the wrong end of a telescope.  Which is what I do, and that enables you to laugh at life's realities. 
~Theodore Geisel
Nothing encourages creativity like the chance to fall flat on one's face. 
~James D. Finley
It's a poor sort of memory that only works backwards. 
~Lewis Carroll, Alice in Wonderland
Some stories are true that never happened. 
~Elie Weisel

A graduation ceremony is an event where the commencement speaker tells thousands of students dressed in identical caps and gowns that "individuality" is the key to success. ~Robert Orben


Just about a month from now I'm set adrift, with a diploma for a sail and lots of nerve for oars. ~Richard Halliburton


There is a good reason they call these ceremonies "commencement exercises." Graduation is not the end; it's the beginning. ~Orrin Hatch


Your families are extremely proud of you. You can't imagine the sense of relief they are experiencing. This would be a most opportune time to ask for money. ~Gary Bolding


The tassel's worth the hassle! ~Author Unknown


The fireworks begin today. Each diploma is a lighted match. Each one of you is a fuse. ~Edward Koch


All that stands between the graduate and the top of the ladder is the ladder. ~Author Unknown


Graduation is only a concept. In real life every day you graduate. Graduation is a process that goes on until the last day of your life. If you can grasp that, you'll make a difference. ~Arie Pencovici


At commencement you wear your square-shaped mortarboards. My hope is that from time to time you will let your minds be bold, and wear sombreros. ~Paul Freund
