“I learned the importance of a man's chair early in life. I learned that he may love several wives, embrace several cars, be true to more than one political philosophy, and be equally committed to several careers, but he will have only one comfortable chair in his life. I learned it will be an ugly chair. It will match nothing in the entire house. It will never wear out.” MenMayPhilosophyPoliticalHouseCareersWifeCarComfortableImportanceEmbraceCommittedUglyBeing TrueChairsFurniturePolitical Philosophy Author:Erma Bombeck
“It is true, we do not like to lose a good, kind companion, a wife, a husband, a child, a brother, a sister, or any of our near and dear friends or relatives; but we have to do it, and it is right and proper that we should. They go a little before us; when we get there they will receive and welcome us and say, "God bless you, you have come at last." That is the way I look at it. I ex pect to strike hands and embrace my friends who have gone before.” WayShouldLooksKindChildrenLittlesHandsLastsLosesGoneWifeBrotherHusbandMy FriendsEmbraceDearStrikesWelcomeCompanionBlessExesSisterGod BlessDear FriendGod Bless You Author:John Taylor
