Quote For The Day

I don't have much to say today, so I will quote someone who says it better than I could.  I think I will post more of my favorite quotes in days to come.

This one is from Bertrand Russell:

"The trouble with the world is that the stupid are cocksure and the intelligent are full of doubt."




I also noticed when I posted this that this is my 1,000th post!  I think I will have a glass of something to celebrate.

Also Yeats: "The best lack all conviction, while the worst/Are full of passionate intensity." There sure are some passionate gun nuts on Facebook...

Both are so true! And yes, my first thought on reading your quote and Bearette's was the gun issue. It's just unreal to me how anyone could support assault weapons in a modern society. Rather scary.

Bertrand Russell has my vote for putting it so well!
