If you rest, you rust

"Negligence is the rust of the soul, that corrodes through all her best resolves" - Owen Feltham

Teardrops

"Silent dew drops fall outside 
As I sit through the night;
And so do tears in my eyes
To hold which I can’t fight"

Green as They Come

"As long as you're green, you're growing. As soon as you're ripe, you start to rot"

Untarnishable

"The wife picked out ceramic tile for floor covering, not realizing that cost was determined by square foot, not square yard like carpet. Thinking the price was plenty reasonable, she had an extra room of tile ordered for installation. When the bill arrived, it was staggering. She and her husband began a fight that continued all through the construction job. They ended up divorced, but not until she had broken every window and every tile" - Jim Harrison

The lucky ant

“Whenever I see an old lady slip and fall on a wet sidewalk, my first instinct is to laugh. But then I think, what if I was an ant, and she fell on me. Then it wouldn't seem quite so funny.” - Jack Handy

Harbringers of life

"A leaf of grass is no less than the journey work of the stars" - Walt Whitman

The last drop

"The human species is still so innocent that a person who is apt to be murdered believes that the murderer, just before he puts the final wrench on his throat, will have enough compassion to give him one sweet cup of water" - Maya Angelou
