Quote for the Day — Isaac Asimov
“There never can be a man so lost as one who is lost in the vast and intricate corridors of his own lonely mind, where none may reach and none may save. There never was a man so helpless as one who cannot remember.” ~~ Isaac Asimov in A Pebble in the Sky

As someone who has been studying Spanish for a while, I occasionally get frustrated with my language learning journey. As one of my instructors said to me, “you will always speak Spanish with a Gringo accent, but if your pronunciation and grammar are correct, don’t worry about it. The idea is to communicate.” That I can do as long as we are not chatting about the theory of relativity, the philosophy of Descartes or other such esoteric subjects.
In my case that Gringo accent has a strong southern component to it…picture Gomer Pyle speaking Spanish, instead of “Golly, Sargent”, it is, “¡Caramba! Sargento.” I came across this quote that I can really relate to.
“Do you know what a foreign accent is? It’s a sign of bravery.” — Amy Chua

Quote of the Day — Octavia Butler
Choose your leaders with wisdom and forethought.
To be led by a coward is to be controlled by all that the coward fears.
To be led by a fool is to be led by the opportunists who control the fool.
To be led by a thief is to offer up your most precious treasures to be stolen.
To be led by a liar is to ask to be told lies.
To be led by a tyrant is to sell yourself and those you love into slavery.
~~ Octavia Butler

Quote of the Day — Dwight D. Eisenhower
“Finally, there is the matter of maintaining a respectable image of American life before the world! Among the qualities that the American government must exhibit is dignity. In turn the principle government spokesman must strive to display it. In war and in peace, I’ve no respect for the desk pounder, and have despised the loud and slick talker. If my own ideas and practices in this matter have sprung from weakness I do not know. But they were and are deliberate or, rather, natural to me. They are not accidental.” ~~ Dwight D. Eisenhower, letter to Henry Luce, August 1960
