Gray Watson's Quote List
Philosophy

that is good enough. And, if you do well, you will not think much
about The Perfect [Person], less and less as time goes by. -- Jim
Daily (1994)
- We are great mysteries. No matter what we imagine we may
know, even for all the facts we might gather, we don't know each
other. Never do, probably never will. Our reputations depend on the
opinions of the ill informed. We all have better moments than anybody
ever knows, and so do all the others. We are, each one of us, books
that are read by critics who only glanced at the chapter headings and
the jacket flap. Each one of us is a secret, and on that basis we
ought to treat each other with the deepest respect. -- Garrison
Keillor, Prairie Home Companion (March 19, 1994)
- Middle class people are fearful of losing. So everything is

change the world. Indeed, it is the only thing that ever has. --

touching, pathetic, awesome nobility of the individual human
spirit. -- John D. MacDonald, A
