Daffy-nition

Liberty: the privilege of being free from things we don’t like so that we can be slaves of things we do.

The Countess of»Nottingham

A quondam sweetheart of the Earl of Essex, and his worst enemy when she heard that he had married the Countess of Rutland. The queen sent her to the Tower to ask»Essex»if he had no petition to make, and the earl requested her to take back a ring, which the queen had given him as a pledge of mercy in time of need. As the countess out of jealousy forebore to deliver it, the earl was executed.



… H. Jones; the Earl of»Essex»(1745)

Armenian Proverb

Always tell the truth in the form of a joke.

On Blinders, Self Esteem, and Stepping Stones

Isn’t it strange that Captains and Kings,
And Clowns that caper in sawdust rings
And common folks like you and me

Are builders for eternity?

To each is given a bag of tools,
A shapeless mass, a book of rules.
And each must build ere life has flown,
A stumbling block or a stepping stone.

… R.L. Sharpe 1890
