Susan Sontag Some luck lies in not getting what you thought you wanted but getting what you have, which once you have got it you may be smart enough to see is what you would have wanted had you known. Garrison Keillor (1942-) You can't beat brains. John F. Kennedy The poor wish to be rich, the rich wish to be happy, the single wish to be married, and the married wish to be dead.
