Over the years, when I've read something that touched me in some way, I've occasionally had the presence of mind to grab a copy and throw it into a manila folder. This folder sits idle most of the time on an unused shelf in the living room. At times, though, in need of inspiration, I'll pull it out to be reminded... 

(Use the Next-button on each page to move to the next quote.)

• The Invitation   - Someone sent this to me a few years ago. I can't remember who. (So what else is new?!)

• Going for the Dog - This I originally heard a few years ago on NPR.

• R. Crumb cartoon - Yeh, it's not a quote, but it's art.

• T.S. Elliot   - Three items that come to mind frequently.

• Is the Body Obsolete? -by Bruce Sterling.

• Tag Team Writing - This purportedly true tale is from the net and is of a high school writing assignment.  

• Warranty Info - This is a tongue-in-cheek warranty notice.

• Einstein et al - Some items from accumulated scraps of paper, etc. Not that I subscribe to every word...

• Orangutan - This is to me a very moving one-page tale. 

I'll be adding more to this list in the future...
