Quotes of Gill Trotman and others
What kind of plant are you?

Not every idea is a perennial. Many of our ideas are only meant to be annuals. The key is realizing which kind of plant you have planted before it starts to die. What kind of plant are you, better yet, what kind of plant is your latest idea? It’s good to know where to invest your time when it comes to new plants in your creative garden.

Quote of the day

…the greater part must be more industrious, or starve…
You must obey this now for a law, that he that will not work shall not eat (except by sickness he be disabled). For the labors of thirty or forty honest and industrious men shall not be consumed to maintain a hundred and fifty idle loiterers.
John Smith -Jamestown
