True confession, I love Will Rogers!
His quote is a great addition to your already great collection.
And as a fellow writer, may I shamelessly announce the publication of my own homesteading book! (I'm so excited). Please come by my blog to take a look. 🙂

Good quotes. Thank you!
I hope this Sunday finds you warm and fed, peaceful and comforted by the Comforter.
