Fireside Philosopher by Alfred
Obstinacy is first cousin to stupidity. Fits of temper make us hot they leave others cold. Believe all they say and you bo to the pughouse. Better to add life to your years than years to your life. Folks are always down on the things they are not up on. Kind thoughts unexpressed are like kisses thrown in the dark. Few things are more appalling than arrogant ignorance.
