Quotes

Candy Is dandy But liquor Is quicker.
You are only young once, but you can stay immature indefinitely.
To keep your marriage brimming, With love in the loving cup, Whenever you're wrong, admit it; Whenever you're right, shut up.

Poet Frederic Ogden Nash was born in Rye, New York on this day in 1902.
"The Hippopotamus" by Ogden Nash
Behold the hippopotamus!
We laugh at how he looks to us,
And yet in moments dank and grim,
I wonder how we look to him.
Peace, peace, thou hippopotamus!
We really look all right to us,
As you no doubt delight the eye
Of other hippopotami.
