Laziness grows
on people; it begins in cobwebs and ends in iron chains. The more one has
to do the more he is able to accomplish.

My husband,
John, was upset when our neighbor Bart Gorman passed away. He respected
Bart as a fellow lawyer and valued him as a friend. At the wake, the man's
son, Bart Gorman, Jr., and grandson, Bart Gorman III, were greeting the
mourners. John introduced himself to both men and said, "Please accept
my sympathy. There'll never be another Bart Gorman."

States" by Blanche Buckley
