"Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover." -- Mark Twain, via email from Curt Rosengren, of Occupational Adventure (sm)

You have a great collection of quotes. I'd like to share a few more quotes on Mark Twain

"Substitute “damn” every time you’re inclined to write “very;” your editor will delete it and the writing will be just as it should be."
"The time to begin writing an article is when you have finished it to your satisfaction. By that time you begin to clearly and logically perceive what it is you really want to say."

"The difference between the right word and the almost right word is the difference between lightning and a lightning bug."
