T is for Mark Twain
(1835-1910)
 |
| Mark Twain From Wikipedia |
“what is joy without sorrow? what is success without failure? what is a win without a loss? what is health without illness? you have to experience each if you are to appreciate the other. there is always going to be suffering. it’s how you look at your suffering, how you deal with it, that will define you.”
and because I need a little humor today, I'm giving you a bonus second Mark Twain quote.
“Eat a live frog first thing in the morning and nothing worse will happen to you the rest of the day.”
Quotes from Goodreads.

I'll skip the frog, thanks!
ReplyDeleteIf we didn't know how bad it could be we wouldn't appreciate how good we have it.
I always love Twain's quotes. Some are so funny! I will definitely pass on the frog though LOL.
ReplyDeleteLOL with the frog; I'm sure nothing else will happen to us for the rest of the day beause we'll be so sick we'll be stuck in bed for the rest of it :)

I believe him on the second one! A lot of truth in the first one.
