Quotes of the day

Another day, another office 100 miles from home and 4 more quotes:-

James Reston

Acquaintance, n.: A person whom we know well enough to borrow from, but not well enough to lend to.
Ambrose Bierce (1842 - 1914), The Devil's Dictionary

I'm not worried about the bullet with my name on it... just the thousands out there marked 'Occupant.'
Unknown

The greatest use of life is to spend it for something that will outlast it.
William James (1842 - 1910)

*thoughtful*
