Quotes for the day...

Some very good quotes from my personalized Google page:

The man of knowledge must be able not only to love his enemies but also to hate his friends.
- Friedrich Nietzsche

some fine quotes for the day...

From my Google page, but I thought I'd share anyway:

- Ellen DeGeneres

If man does find the solution for world peace it will be the most revolutionary reversal of his record we have ever known.
- George C. Marshall
