Today's Notable Quotes:

“A penny saved is a penny earned."
                      -Benjamin Franklin-

"Then the long winter set in. There was little money left, but to Mrs. Bart it seemed worse than nothing—the mere mockery of what she was entitled to. What was the use of living if one had to live like a pig."
                    -The House of Mirth, Edith Wharton-

"And then there was another pain too, quieter, weightier, its roots in what everybody knows—that one day a person looks back more than forward, that one day he'll have achieved as much as he was going to, loved as much as he was going to, been as happy as it was granted him to be. And that day, won't he have to wonder—was it enough, what he's lived? Can he call that a life and be satisfied?"
                     -Typical American, Gish Jen-
