CLOSED
About the Authors:
"Kathryn and Ross Petras are a brother-and-sister writing team and inveterate collectors of quotations. Their books include Age Doesn't Matter Unless You're a Cheese, The 776 Stupidest Things Ever Said, Don't Forget to Sing in the Lifeboats, and many more. Their work has been covered in publications including The New York Times, The Washington Post, and the London Times, and on numerous television and radio shows, including Good Morning America. They are also the creators of the bestselling The 365 Stupidest Things Ever Said Page-A-Day® calendar, which has more than 4.3 million copies in print. Ross Petras lives with his family in New Jersey; Kathryn Petras with her husband in Manhattan."
My Take:
I just love this book. It has some really amazing quotes in it that help you to remember what's really important in life. Here are some of my favorites:
"Be yourself; everyone else is already taken." ―Oscar Wilde
"Don't cry because it's over, smile because it happened." ―Dr. Seuss (Theodor Geisel)
"The only time to eat diet food is while you're waiting for the steak to cook." ―Julia Child
"The greatest mistake you can make in life is to be continually fearing you will make one." ―Elbert G. Hubbard
And, just for my mom...
"Call home at least once a week." ―John Grisham

My favorite quote was on a poster I had in college. It was Snoopy sitting on a pile of empty pizza boxes and empty root beer mugs.
"If it feels good, over do it."
Gotta love Snoopy's philosophy.
