Line-by-line

This is a place where we can talk about things that we are not always able to talk about in the classroom. There are no marks, so don't worry that your English isn't good enough, because it is. 
However, there are a few ground rules.


1. Only English. 
2. Remember, this is the web, and everything you write here is 100% public. 
3. All comments must be signed, but use a nickname or just your first name.
4. No insults and no rude language.
5. Feel free to disagree with ideas, including mine, but you must always be respectful of the people who express ideas different from yours.


So, that said, I'll start this discussion with a light topic this week. As you can see from the homepage of this site, I like quotes and aphorisms. The best ones give us the pleasure of an elegant combination of content and form. So my question is, "What's your favourite quote?" It can be funny or serious, by a famous person, anonymous or something that a family member or friend says. Share it and tell us why you like it!
