MY FAVORITE QUOTE

There are so many good quotes to choose from; quotes that express wisdom or offer succinct advice, quotes that use humor to make a point. There are quotes from philosophers such as Plato, or quotes from legendary statesmen like Abraham Lincoln. There are also quotes from American folklore heroes such as Will Rogers. Sometimes even Bible verses are used as quotes.

I’ve always admired Mark Twain’s droll sense of humor and his talent for pointing out our sometimes misguided sense of right and wrong.

“Under certain circumstances, urgent circumstances, desperate circumstances, profanity provides a relief denied even to prayer.”
Mark Twain

Now, please don’t misunderstand me. I’m not advocating use of profanity in every other sentence you speak, or constant use of the F bomb. Although now and then…never mind, I digress a bit.

My point is that a well placed and judiciously used expletive can speak volumes as well as provide a harmless way to let off steam.
