Rubin

Good Service Tip Of The Week
Nine-tenths of wisdom consists in being wise in time. Theodore
Roosevelt
Classics From The Capital City - They Said What?
The perfection of wisdom, and the end of true philosophy is to
proportion our wants
to our possessions, our ambitions to our capacities, we will then be a happy and a
virtuous people. MarkTwain
Knowledge is a process of piling up facts; wisdom lies
in their simplification. Fischer
It is a thousand times better to have common sense
without education than to have education without common sense.
Ingersoll
We learn wisdom from failure much more than from
success. We often discover what will do, by finding out what will
not do; and probably he who never made a mistake never made a
discovery. Samuel Smiles

Oh Thank You. Thank You, I needed to know
this!

spinning around in your waiting room!"
Doctor: "Don't worry, it's just a bug that's going

The Writer's Block
Humor is, I think, the subtlest
and chanciest of literary forms. It is surely not accidental that
there are a thousand novelists, essayists, poets or journalists
for each humorist.
It is a long, long time between James Thurbers.
Leo Rosten
Deliver me from writers who say the way they
live doesn't matter. I'm not sure a bad person can write a good
book. If art doesn't make us better, then what on earth is it for.
Walker
I may not agree with what you say,
but I shall defend to the death your right to say it. Voltaire.
Fortune Cookies
Am I therefore become your enemy, because I tell you the truth? Galatians
