Tragedy can't spawn brilliance; it can only bring it out (or bring it into sharper focus) if it's already there.<BR/><BR/>Hey, wait a minute...did you just call me old? ;DTeresa Rhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16903916899358897461noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7328104219545894052.post-59915536104323044902008-12-10T11:47:00.000-08:002008-12-10T11:47:00.000-08:00i think twain gets better the older a person gets. haha!<BR/><BR/>also, to get all platitudinal, sometimes tragedy brings out the best in people. <BR/><BR/>although, i have a suspicion that twain would have been astounding regardless of his situation.r4kk4http://www.blogger.com/profile/12860378522172305917noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7328104219545894052.post-76055855253739934342008-12-10T11:22:00.000-08:002008-12-10T11:22:00.000-08:00One of our favorite authors/wits! It was a bit hard getting the younger kids in our literary co-op to understand "The celebrated jumping frog", but the rest of us laughed so hard. Amazing how he was so humorous with so much sadness in his life.Teresa Rhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16903916899358897461noreply@blogger.com
