Quote of the Day, 8/15/06

Three quotes about how much time it takes to be brief:

Cicero (also attributed to many others)
If I had more time, I would have written a shorter letter.

Pascal
This [letter] would not be so long had I but the leisure to make it shorter.

Thoreau
Not that the story need be long, but it will take a long while to make it short.
