“I’ve always loved the idea of not being what people expect me to be.”   —   Dita Von Teese

(The author’s name was so puzzling to me.  So, of course I Googled her.  Apparently, Heather Renée Sweet – her given name – is also known as the “Queen of Burlesque”.  This gives more meaning to her quote, and it also explains why I chose this photo.  Oh!  This also means that we welcome Dita Von Teese to the Cryptoquote Club.  Be well and do good, friends.)   —   YUR

PS.  I say she rates three hubbas!   —   YUR

“One makes mistakes; that is life.  But it is never a mistake to have loved.”   —   Romain Rolland

(His quote is true.  As with making – and losing – a friend, it’s never a mistake to have loved.  I love it when I’m introduced to a new quotes author!  Romain was a learned man, who wore many hats.  He was quite the prolific writer too.  Today, we welcome him to the Cryptoquote Club!  Be well and do good, friends.)   —   YUR

“He is no fool who gives what he cannot keep to gain what he cannot lose.”   —   Jim Elliot

(I guess you need to have that kind of mindset in order to – try to – “evangelize” people.  Of course, for this poor slob, he paid the ultimate price . . . his life, as the Huaorani people weren’t all that keen on being “converted”.  Oh, well.  They say pride goeth before a fall.  But, we welcome Jim to the Cryptoquote Club today.  Be well and do good, friends.)   —   YUR

“In order to keep my creativity alive, I just try to enjoy life to the fullest.”   —   G-Dragon

(The King of K-Pop!  lwc knew that!  LOL!  I made a semi-educated guess, and was right.  I bet my granddaughter, Lina, knows who this is.  She’s a big fan of some Korean boy band.  I forget their name, but they kind of look like teenage girls to me.  She’d be highly offended to hear that!  Well, anyway, I guess we need to welcome G-Dragon to the Cryptoquote Club.  Welcome, Ji!  Be well and do good, friends.)   —   YUR
