“Too many of us look upon Americans as dollar chasers.
This is a cruel libel, even if it is reiterated
thoughtlessly by the Americans themselves.“

“America believes in education:
the average professor earns more money
in a year than a professional athlete
earns in a whole week.”

Humor is the great thing, the saving thing.
The minute it crops up, all our irritations and resentments
slip away and a sunny spirit takes their place.
Thought for Today
“To find the universal elements enough;
to find the air and the water exhilarating;
to be refreshed by a morning walk
or an evening saunter;
to be thrilled by the stars at night;
to be elated over a bird’s nest
or a wildflower in spring
these are some of the rewards of the simple life.”
