This is very important to know 4woody. As in the Zen koan when the master sent his student to bring him another bowl when the first one was broken. The master dashed it to the floor and asked for another and another. All met the same fate. The student was puzzled. "I want to have the exact same bowl" said the master. Then the student understood.

You certainly find some very poignant Quotes Woody. I believe you mentioned at one time that you collect them. It is an interesting hobby and I'm interested to know, if you don't mind, telling me, when you started collecting them? Another question, why?
My grandmother started my interest in Quotes. She always bought me a book for Christmas and birthdays from childhood and she would write a few words or a little quote in the front of each one. I began to look forward to reading each new one and eventually began to list them in a little book. I love them and often find one there to use myself for a specific purpose. I continue to add my own nowdays, when I find one of particular interest.
That’s so lovely. I will do that with my grandchildren if I get any 💚
I don’t remember when this started. It’s been years. I used to save them almost daily. Now I just share them and move on. I love seeing what other people think when they read them. It is almost always a positive response. I enjoy the conversations.
