Noise proves nothing. Often a hen who has merely laid an egg cackles as if she has laid an asteroid.

He is really a genius . The latest report about Einstein is that he's got a lot of secret lovers . Anybody who can do that is a real genius !
All of the quotes are close to my heart, I am the most curious person I know!!
I ask a million questions and I like shiney things!! Ohhh, look another shiney thing, brb...
I also do not believe
in mathmatics, just human stupidity.
Einstein was a Jersey boy. But I can't say I feel any smarter living here.
Lee Ann has great posts on Mondays. Always.

"Keep away from people who try to belittle your ambitions. Small people always do that, but the really great make you feel that you, too, can become great." Small people beget small attitutes and small accomplishments. I mean small on the inside of course. This is a great post Lee Ann. Hope you are well. Take care babe.
TG
I roll with this quote quite frequently
I don't believe in mathematics.
:)
I just don't like the whole mathematics thing. Especially when I'm shopping and it's 50% off and then another 33% off of that and then take an extra 10% if it's Tuesday.. Do you think Albert was shopping when he wrote that? makes sense doesn't it.
twain is rad. einstein can suck my chodes.
just kidding. he's pretty rad too.
I was always fond of Einstein....but Twain was an A-hole!
I have always love the one by Mark Twain
If you tell the truth you dont have to remember anything

Poly ~ Math makes me feel stupid sometimes and I don't want to believe that! haha
Beckeye ~ I lived in Jersey for a while...Upper Saddle River, know where that is? I liked it.

Trucker ~ Yes, I would say that, definitely!
Thank you, I hope you have a wonderful week.
I would say the one about the dog.
those are great! I wished I had your "best pickup lines" today. I was on a shoot for a program about relationships and we were talking about those funny lines. I could only think of about 2 or 3 of them! lol
App ~ If you pick up a starving dog and make him prosperous, he will not bite you; that is the principal difference between a dog and a man...definitely something to make you think!
Jlee ~ Those do make good conversation!
