I love reading old quotes, one of my favorites is, "do unto others as you would have them do unto you."
"...they live like men."
Ha. Great line!

That is the cutest picture I have ever seen!
Love the quotes.
I think she was actually saying: Don't flash the drivers.
Or maybe: Those young chicks spread them too quickly
I am a great believer in sleeping on things beforehand. But I often don't do it. That has resulted in lots of sleepless nights!
Love the duck pictures -- Mother does know best ..... usually.
I hope that little duckie's ok!
Sam's the man!
Lucy: or perhaps as Gypsy Rose Lee said 'Do unto others before they do you!'
I love the photo and accompanying quote.
The "they live like men" is great too, as Shephard pointed out. It makes me stronger when someone reminds us of our basic elements as humans.
another great collection of quotes - I enjoy these and always look forward to your post.
love the pic - looked like the Britney and her Mom of the duck set.
Great quotes! The kissing balls were really pretty :)
Have a beautiful day,

I hope that duckling was going downhill. It will never make it over the curb.
The quotes have a great deal of wisdom to them. I am with shephard "...they live like men."
Yes, there is an uncomfortable amount of truth in that one.
My site is back up and so is my favorites list. I am finally back to posting.
I love phototgraphing birds, and this is just the cutest. A fabulous funny photo.
Love the Gracian quote!
What a cute photo and caption.
I'm sorry you had such a terrible bout with the flu.
How awful! I hope this weekend you've been feeling much better. I know that a bad flu can keep you from feeling back to normal for quite some time.
