nice sayings to relieve Xmas boredom !

Ambrose Bierce, an interesting man who disappeared into thin air.... he left some good sayings behind :~)

Meekness: Uncommon patience in planning a revenge that is worth while. You are not permitted to kill a woman who has wronged you, but nothing forbids you to reflect that she is growing older every minute. You are avenged 1440 times a day.

Diplomacy: The patriotic art of lying for one's country.

Lottery: A tax on people who are bad at math.
