“If you have a garden and a library, you have everything you need.”   —   Marcus Tullius Cicero

(Today’s younger people might change this to:  If you have a smart phone and a charger, you have everything you need.  I’m glad that I’m older.  Be well and do good, friends.)   —   YUR

“If you have a garden and a library, you have everything you need.”   —   Marcus Tullius Cicero

(Ohh, we finally get his full name!  With these ancient Greek and Roman philosophers, and statesmen, etc., all you usually hear are the famous single names.  Aristotle, Socrates, Plato, Euripides, Seneca, Cicero . . . Cher, names like that.  I’m not so sure how well this quotation has aged though.  It comes off a little Oprah-ish.  Let’s butch it up a bit, shall we!  If you have a brewery and the NFL Package, you have everything you need.  There you go!  I bet yer uncle could update all of the classics . . . for a price.  Be well and do good, friends.)   —   YUR
