French quotes make me happy

It's official now. I've paid to live in the dorms this summer. Still trying to decide what kind of job to have. I could go for the job where I sit and read and play on the computer and answer people's questions but only get paid 7 bucks an hour. Or I could try a catering job where I run all over the place with heavy trays and try to appease moody customers but get paid at least 10, sometimes 15. What to do, what to do?

Not much has gone on since my last post except for school and work. I'm in the mood to go on a long bike ride. I tried going on one today but just wound up riding in circles in the parking lot. I'm almost to the point where I can ride with no hands. This has been my goal for sometime. I think I'll learn to skateboard this summer. It's a standard skill, you know. Right up there with cooking and balancing a check book.

Heard a good quote today:
L'humour est la politesse du désespoir. --George Bernard Shaw

I imagine it was in English first but I like it in French.
I like this one too:
Une mère met vingt ans à faire de son fils un homme. Une autre femme en fait un fou en vingt minutes. --Helen Rowland

Then there's:
Il faut vous dire que j'avais perdu tout sens moral à la suite d'une chute de cheval. --Alphonse Allais
