I got some funny photos in the mail yesterday. Here's one. In honor of the photographer, a few quotes:
"It is not often that someone comes along who is a true friend and a good writer." Wilbur
"...the quickest way to spoil a friendship is to wake somebody up in the morning before he is ready." Charlotte
"People believe almost anything they see in print." Charlotte
"We must advertise Wilbur's noble qualities, not his tastiness." Charlotte
"Why did you do all this for me?" he asked. "I don't deserve it. I've never done anything for you."
"You have been my friend," replied Charlotte. "That in itself is a tremendous thing. I wove my webs for you because I liked you. After all, what's a life, anyway? We're born, we live a little while, we die... By helping you, perhaps I was trying to lift up my life a trifle. Heaven knows anyone's life can stand a little of that."
I am so thankful for E.B. White.
