“The successful people are those who can think up things for the rest of the world to keep busy at.” — Don Marquis
(This guy, Marquis, was quite clever! We haven’t had one of his quotes in quite a while, and I – for one – would like to see more of them. The quote actually uses all but four letters, when including the author name. But, until I wrote out the near-remaining eight letters I didn’t know the last name of the author, OR the word “busy”! The blankUSblank was completely foreign to me, until I got to those eight letters! But, getting “busy” made getting his last name much easier. Be well and do good, friends.) — YUR

“Middle age is the time when a man is always thinking that in a week or two he will feel as good as ever.” — Don Marquis
(I’ll settle for that. It’s better than thinking that in a week or two I’m going to be dead! Be well, stay positive, and do good, friends.) — YUR

(Very cute. And, a fairly challenging cryptoquote! Be well and do good, friends.) — YUR
“Don’t cuss the climate; it probably doesn’t like you any better than you like it.” — Don Marquis
