I found this on the front page of Arlonet & thought it was neat & funny:

A couple of my favorites:

"I hate quotations."
--Ralph Waldo Emerson

He did, however, continue with, " Tell me what you know."

and:

"I am not young enough to know everything."

"Last night when I had climbed the stairs,
I saw a man who wasn't there.
he wasn't there again today...
I wish, I wish he'd go away."

I forget the author and I have the first line goofed up but it has stayed with me for years...it's haunting.

This appears in the Oxford Dictionary of Quotations (9th ed.) as having been written by Hughes Mearns (1875 - 1965), as reads:

As I was walking up the stair
I met a man who wasn't there.
He wasn't there again today.
I wish, I wish he'd stay away.

Lines written for The Psycho-ed, an amateur play, in Philadelphia, 1910 (set to music in 1939 as 'The Little Man Who Wasn't There')

I never could think of anything to post here when i was browsing about. Then I thought of something I thought was cool and then I saw something on the York County Votech Sign that was cool! So, after much consternation I have decided to post them both!
