Life must be lived forwards (Kierkegaard)

Fly (Yoko Ono)

To be fair, English is full of booby traps for the unwary foreigner. Any language where the unassuming word fly signifies an annoying insect, a means of travel, and a critical part of a gentleman’s apparel is clearly asking to be mangled. Bill Brson (in Mother Tongue )

Laughter is sunshine (William Makepeace Thackeray)

We are all here for a spell. Get all the good laughs you can. Will Rogers

We've been friends now for so many years (The Beach Boys)

Pete Shotton and John Lennon RIP Pete - who passed away 24th March this year, age 75.

I never miss a beat, I'm lightning on my feet (Taylor Swift)

It's never been about trying to look well-behaved. It's just how I am. I guess it's a weird thing to be 19 and not ever have been drunk, but for me, it just feels normal because I don't really know any other way. I don't know if I'd be comfortable getting wasted and not knowing what I've said. That doesn't mean when I'm older I won't have a glass of wine. I just don't think it's such a strange thing for me not to be wasted all the time.   Taylor Swift

Lemon tree very pretty and the lemon flower is sweet (Peter Paul and Mary)

“Happiness is when what you think, what you say, and what you do are in harmony.”  — Mahatma Gandhi
