Quote of the Day, 7/31/06

From one of my all-time favorite books, John Irving's A Prayer for Owen Meany....
I have learned that the consequences of our past actions are always interesting. I have learned to view the present with a forward-looking eye.

The copy of the book on my shelf isn't mine -- it belongs to an old friend Chris P, who leant it to me more than 7 years ago when we both lived in Los Angeles. If I ever track him down, maybe I'll return it....

thanks so much ... Owen Meany still surprises me, even though I've read it several times
