Searching for literary immortality

Every person, on some level, wants to leave something behind that will be memorable. For most, it is our children, and at that, with four memorable children, I am fortunate indeed.

But I seek more ... a catch-phrase that will catch the attention of future generations and become part of the human literary lexicon. Thoughts pop into my head and are rejected like chaff from a thrasher machine. But some stick and, at least for a time, seem to be possible contenders.



It's not that men are from Mars or that women are from Venus, it's just that men are stupid.

Guilt is like an execution by guillotine ... but with guilt the victim pulls the lever that releases the blade.

A step toward a new beginning should not be taken in clown shoes.

I will not eat anything that contains additives.

(Quote from a man who died last week after choking on a handful of rocks.)
