When it comes to being bombarded with "stuff" while on this demon box, I'm pretty adept at just seeing what I want and leaving the rest.....a technique I unwittingly honed to perfection in high school.<br />And now and again something memorable sticks. Much like the following gems:<br />"Information is not knowledge". and <br />"Imagination is more important than knowledge". - Albert Einstein<br />Kevin G.https://www.blogger.com/profile/17971072097191668750noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8333594380363882958.post-42671713788721814262013-01-31T17:57:10.818-08:002013-01-31T17:57:10.818-08:00Sal: Thank you.

My favorite quotation of his, from <i>Lives of the 12 Caesars</i>--"Some have accuseme of writing stories that are not true. Well, if they're not true, they <i>should</i> be" [loose translation, but it's there. As Thurber said, "You could look it up."]Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04955385619309026725noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8333594380363882958.post-21255528000397069242013-01-28T16:20:39.180-08:002013-01-28T16:20:39.180-08:00But you share many beautiful photographs, Pierre! ...But you share many beautiful photographs, Pierre!
