"I love quotations because it is a joy to find thoughts one might have, beautifully expressed with much authority by someone recognized wiser than oneself."                                                                                                                                                                                           Marlene Dietrich (1901 – 1992)

QUOTES and WISDOM   

We have worked real hard to bring to you an assortment of quotes from various famous and infamous people around the globe. Some are serious, some are humorous and some are sad, but most of all these quotes will make you think.

Sometimes it is difficult to believe when you see who has said it and when it was said. The intelligence in some of the quotes written well before our times left us totally astounded and will also surprise most of our visitors.

If you ever need a snappy line for the next coffee and cake club meeting or if you wish to surprise some of your friends, then give them a quote to remember you by.

George Bernard Shaw once said: "I often quote myself. It adds spice to my conversations!" That would be fabulous for anyone to say, but then again, none of us is a George Bernard. Or are you?

Ok, so use some other quotes to express ourselves. A quote which will really describe you, perhaps something like one of these gems:

“Old is always fifteen years from now!"

“Age is a question of mind over matter. If you don't mind, it doesn't matter! "

“If age is catching up with you, walk a little faster!”

Of course we would love to hear some of your favourite quotes, whether they were written by yourself or the ones you always use at specific occasions. Quotes are lively and often controversial, but always require a lot of thought to be fully understood. Please send your contributions for inclusion in these pages to our email address.
