Each month we choose a favorite quote--something fun or something to make you think. See the archive for quotes from previous months.


Herb loved storybooks. Although he wasn't a very good reader, it didn't
matter because he could tell a lot from the pictures. Herb liked the
scary ones best, with pictures of dinosaurs gobbling up other dinosaurs,
or swooping vampires chasing people who had foolishly decided to go for a midnight stroll without any garlic.
