Gah!!! It’s a snow day (more of a sleet day, actually, but I digress), so I have a wee bit more time. Don’t stop th’ quoting.
Mine was “Sometimes you have to laugh at yourself, cause you’d cry your eyes out if you didn’t. -Emily Saliers” Good ang filled quote. It was actually a toss-up between that and “Everybody’s got something to hide, 'cept me and my monkey. -Lennon.” Here are some other winners:

The World is a beautiful place
to be born into
if you don’t mind some people dying
all the time
or maybe just starving
some of the time
which isn’t half bad
if it isn’t you.
-Lawrence Farlinghetti
“When you finally do back to your old hometown, you find it wasn’t the old home you missed, but your childhood.” Sam Ewing

It is easier to love humanity as a whole than love one’s neighbor. - Eric Hoffer

I like a bunch…
