What soap is to the body, laughter is to the soul. --Yiddish Proverb

A man's true wealth is the good he does in the world. --Muhammad

If you're not using your smile, you're like a man with a million dollars in the bank and no checkbook. --Les Giblin

Driven by the forces of love, the fragments of the world seek each other so that the world may come into being. Love alone is capable of uniting living beings in such a way as to complete and fulfill them, for it alone takes them and joins them by what is deepest in themselves -- Pierre Teilhard de Chardin

"Connie was a couple years older than me, a couple pounds heavier, a couple inches shorter, a couple cups bigger, and her hair was a couple inches higher than mine. Connie was pretty in a kick ass, central Jersey, third generation Italian kind of way."

This is a great quote from Janet Evonovich's book Lean Mean Thirteen.


I like it because it reminds me of me. haha




And, how about this one:

"Lula cruised down Hamilton and turned onto North Broad. The wind had cut back, and it was no longer snowing, but there was still a thick cloud cover overhead. At best, the weather could now be described as grim. I was silently rehearsing my fake speech about how I needed information for an audit. And I was making promises to myself as performance incentive. I was seeing macaroni and cheese in my near future. Butterscotch Tastykakes. Onion rings. Snickers bars. Okay, so this had all the makings of a cluster fuck, but there was a Dairy Queen Oreo Cheesequake Blizzard waiting for me somewhere."


You've gotta love a book that mentions awesome Italian girls, New Jersey, and Dairy Queen in the first chapter.

Right on (and SOOOO me)
