FOOD FOR THOUGHT

First they came for the Jews
And I did not speak out because I was not to a Jew.
Then they came for the Communists
And I did not speak out because I was not a Communist.
Then they came for the trade unionists
And I did not speak out because I was not a trade unionist.
They came for me
and there was no one left to speak out for me.

    - Pastor Martin Niemoller.

I have found the best way to give advice to your children is to find out what they want and then advise them to do it

Jimi hendrix interview after the Isle Of Wight festival.

"Whats it like to be the best guitarist in the world?"

"I don't know. Ask Rory Gallagher."

I have found this quote on several websites and having been looking for the original interview, but haven't found it yet.

Says a lot about Rory, eh?

Happiness is a how, not a what; a talent, not an object.

When one door of happiness closes, another opens ; but often we look so long at the closed door that we not see the one which has been opened for us.

The happiest person is the person who thinks the most interesting thoughts.
