[MarilynMonroe00]

One of my favorite quotes:


No fathers or mothers think their own children ugly; and this self-deceit is yet stronger with respect to the offspring of the mind.--CERVANTES.

btw, read Don Quixote de la Mancha if you have not!

[JoeLopp]

Tnx for sharing that Marilyn, and it is sooo true! I've not yet read Quixote, but def intend to... :thumbs_up

[Barbarous]

a bit of a paraphrase from the first part of Don Quixote:
"A proverb is a short sentence based on long experience."

"There is no taking trout with dry breeches." Cervantes
