WISDOM KEEPERS

That's me. A wisdom keeper.  It seems to me, in my youth, I came up with a very cogent quote. I can't remember it anymore.  Age robs us of more than years. Memory goes woggly, as well. But, there are so many wonderful quotes from others I hope to share today. Then, I'll print them out and read them now and then to stay up to date.

My favorite:

“Travel is fatal to prejudice, bigotry, and narrow-mindedness, and many of our people need it sorely on these accounts. Broad, wholesome, charitable views of men and things cannot be acquired by vegetating in one little corner of the earth all one's lifetime.” ― Mark Twain 

"No Nation or state can advance faster than it's working classes."-   H. A. Rucker

"Respect existence or expect resistance"-  Martin Luther King

"Share the same garment of opportunity, for no human is illegal."-   Martin Luther King

"Our inequality materializes our upper class, vulgarizes our middle class and brutalizes our lower class.-         Matthew Arnold 

"The gulf between employers and employed is constantly widening, and classes are rapidly forming, one comprising the very rich and powerful and the other the poor who are toiling."  President Hoover

"The wealth of a country is its working people."  Theodore Herzl

Wisdom is fine, but life must have some fun. A couple of young people loved to quote this in front of any serious conversations to jar the adults away from being too dull.

"Sex is evil,  Evil is sin,  Sin is forgiven,  So, sex is in!!!"

Don't you love it when the kids are more clever than the adults?

Cha, cha, cha.
