And speaking of Ernest Hemingway…

Random quote of the day:


"The best way to find out if you can trust somebody is to trust them."

—attributed to Ernest Hemingway










Interesting "synchronicity" about the choosing of this illustration. I went to a website which has a number of paintings by Jake Baddeley but doesn't list the titles. I saw this and said, "That looks like trust to me," then I went to Baddeley's own website to see what the actual title was. It turned out to be "Trust." I think that says more about non-verbal communication or Mr. B's imagistic projections then about synchronicity, but it's interesting nonetheless.

This actually is rather relevant to how I'm feeling today. Your quote file's continued omniscience continues to impress me.

Hey, I figure most days it's going to hit *somebody* close to home. :-)

I don't trust that quote

[pjthompson]

I don't trust your lack of trust.

So true. That's probably why it's such a hard thing to do. :)
