Say It Again [Christmas]

without comments

Since this weekend officially kicks of the holiday season, I thought we could all benefit from some interesting, true and tongue-in-cheek musings on Christmas.

For more holiday wisdom and wit, go here.

 Do give books – religious or otherwise – for Christmas. They’re never fattening, seldom sinful, and permanently personal
[Lenore Hershey]

A turkey never voted for an early Christmas.
[Irish Proverb]

Aren’t we forgeting the true meaning of Christmas? You know, the birth of Santa?
[Matt Groenig]

Christmas is a time when people of all religions come together to worship Jesus Christ.
[Matt Groenig, also]

A good conscience is a continual Christmas.
[Benjamin Franklin]

Say It Again [War]

without comments

Some quotes on war, as I was inpired by The Kingdom movie…

One is left with the horrible feeling now that war settles nothing; that to win a war is as disastrous as to lose one.
Agatha Christie (1890 – 1976), Autobiography (1977)

I know not with what weapons World War III will be fought, but World War IV will be fought with sticks and stones.
Albert Einstein (1879 – 1955)

You cannot simultaneously prevent and prepare for war.
Albert Einstein (1879 – 1955), (attributed)

War is not nice.
Barbara Bush (1925 – )
