What you call dog with no legs?
Don't matter what you call him, he ain't gonna come.
From 'April', The Shepherd's Calendar (1827):NOW infant April joins the Spring,I.
And views the watery sky,
As youngling linnet tries its wing,
And fears at first to fly;
With timid step she ventures on,
And hardly dares to smile,
Till blossoms open one by one,
And sunny hours beguile.
But finer days are coming yet,II.
With scenes more sweet to charm,
And suns arrive that rise and set
Bright strangers to a storm:
Then, as the birds with louder song
Each morning’s glory cheer,
With bolder step she speeds along,
And loses all her fear.
In wanton gambols, like a child,III.
She tends her early toils,
And seeks the buds along the wild,
That blossoms while she smiles;
Or, laughing on, with nought to chide,
She races with the Hours,
Or sports by Nature’s lovely side,
And fills her lap with flowers...

The wheel that squeaks the loudest is the one that gets the grease~ Josh Billings
"I've witnessed first hand the power of ideas, I've seen people kill in the name of them, and die defending them... but you cannot kiss an idea, cannot touch it, or hold it... ideas do not bleed, they do not feel pain, they do not love... "
Alan Moore-V for Vendetta
We should not judge people by their peak of excellence; but by the distance they have travelled from the point where they started~ Henry Ward Beecher
Jacob A. Riis, journalist and social reformer (1849-1914)When nothing seems to help, I go and look at a stone-cutter hammering away at his rock perhaps a hundred times without as much as a crack showing in it. Yet at the hundred and first blow it would split in two, and I know it was not that blow that did it, but all that had gone before together.
