Re: Thanks to Carl

Carl is certainly, as has been said, a gentleman and a 
scholar  -- and due huge credit for this seamless transition 
and his apt description of it.  Credit for Kennedy's 
oft-quoted "ask not ..." is due to Kahlil Gibran.
 

Cheers to you all!

"Carl Distefano:

It pleases me to see people chatting normally,
as though nothing had happened. That was the goal: to change the
tablecloth while the dinner was in progress, without disturbing the
dishes -- or the diners.

Cognac, anyone?"


Hi

For years I've been collecting Quotes that I think are exceptional.

After reading Carl's remark above, I see that I need to add a section about concepts.
I'm wondering now if Carl might have written John F. Kennedy's, Ask not what your country can do for speech.
Terrific concept about the dinner, Carl.
Just a little Cognac for me, thank you.

Thanks for saving the LIST.
