Quotes and Notes #231, June 30,
“You can’t depend on your eyes when your imagination is out of focus.”—Mark Twain—
It is important, no matter what we experience or how old we are, to keep searching, keep asking, and to continue to examine our surroundings.
We must never lose the questions, “What would happen if…” and “What would it look like if…”
And to share a smile

Quotes and Notes #214, June 12
“All you need in this life is ignorance and confidence, and then success is sure.”—Mark Twain—
I may not be able to do something. I may not have the ability to fulfill a dream, but please don’t tell me about my shortcomings.
If I have a desire or a dream for something that I wish to accomplish, and if I have the necessary motivation and self-confidence, then I will go for it.
Who knows what will happen if….

Quotes and Notes #175, April 29
“Dogs and philosophers do the greatest good and get the fewest rewards.”—Diogenes—
You may feel secure in telling your dog your most secret, personal, and private feelings because the dog will never betray you. All your dog asks in return is a lot of care and petting along with a bacon treat every now and then.
And as for philosophers, try this:
“If you pick up a starving dog and make him prosperous he will not bite you. This is the principal difference between a dog and man.”—Mark Twain—
But Dogs are short-lived compared to philosophers. Now and then we are left with only fond, loving memories. RIP, Speck Coondog who went to Beulah Land on April 29, 2015 and is now chasing squirrels and bacon treats in Dog Heaven. We will miss you, Speck.

I promised a while back that I would write a "quotes and notes" article every day for a year. I'm over halfway there. Keep track of the progress.
