Quote of the Day
Google's personalized homepage has a Quote of the Day option, and I found today's quote particularly amusing:
How vain it is to sit down to write when you have not stood up to live.
- Henry David Thoreau
It made me think of Jeremy's comment that blogging is hard, because you need to have an interesting life to blog. What would Thoreau think of today's bloggers? Vanity of vanities...

Think of the Bronte sisters, though. They never did get the chance to Live, at least as we might term it, and they did pretty well. Of course, they made it all up . ... Maybe I should start a fictitious blog :)
oops. The "anonymous" is me. I? Yes, the "anonymous" was I.
I never read Jane Eyre, but I really disliked Wuthering Heights, so maybe Emily needed to stand up to live a little more.
