Have a great weekend all. Some parting words from one of America’s greatest literary dudes:
“Keep away from people who try to belittle your ambitions. Small people always do that, but the really great make you feel that you, too, can become great.”
– Mark Twain

You really take good pictures, LOL!
I’m afraid i can’t take credit for this shot James – this one was borrowed from a pal of mine (see Image Source). Whenever a photo isn’t mine, I’ll always link it. Thanks for the comment!
Well Said by Mr. Twain and so true. Jay
He’s a smart one, isn’t he? Hope you’re doing well Jay.
Great quote! I’m going to write that one down to keep.
Thanks Deb. One of my favorites- glad you enjoy it too!

Hear, hear, Samuel Clemens! He was certainly a keen observer and insightful guy.
Had a good head on her shoulders, right? Got to love those who can see the truth especially when we don’t wish to do so.
This is really brilliant. You may not be taking the photos but you know how to combine them with the right text or vice versa. You’ve just filled up a page in my book of quotes. Thoroughly inspirational.
Barb, thanks for that. I appreciate your comment and am glad to hear that you found a few new words to keep you going.
That’s totally true. Love your blog.
Thank you f-stops. Your photography is stunning as well. See you ’round soon.
