Selected from Michael Moncur's Collection of Quotations - October 25, 2022

Life is what happens to you while you're busy making other plans.: John Lennon (1940 - 1980), "Beautiful Boy"
One of the serious obstacles to the improvement of our race is indiscriminate charity.: Andrew Carnegie (1835 - 1919)
There are 10^11 stars in the galaxy. That used to be a huge number. But it's only a hundred billion. It's less than the national deficit! We used to call them astronomical numbers. Now we should call them economical numbers.: Richard Feynman (1918 - 1988)
A large income is the best recipe for happiness I ever heard of.: Jane Austen (1775 - 1817), Mansfield Park
