A few of my old favorite cartoons

 If you can't read the captions, they are:

1. "Is Nothing Sacred?"

2. "Hey, Louise, get this...Morris the cat died!"

3. "Do you swear to tell the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth?"

     "And then some!"

4. "Water boils down to nothing...snow boils down to nothing...ice boils down to nothing...everything boils down to nothing." 

 

 And a bonus poem by Stephen Crane:

 

The sage lectured brilliantly.

Before him, two images:

"Now this one is a devil,

And this one is me."

He turned away.

Then a cunning pupil

Changed the positions.

Turned the sage again:

"Now this one is a devil,

And this one is me."

The pupils sat, all grinning,

And rejoiced in the game.

But the sage was a sage. 

 

 And two quotations:

 

From Seymour: An Introduction by J.D. Salinger:

"No one in our family, not even Seymour, felt drafts. Only terrible drafts."

 

True or Apocryphal:

Oscar Wilde: "I wish I'd said that, Whistler." 

Whistler: "You will, Oscar, you will."
