Ha! I post something about quotes and miraculously someone presents me with a book to give away on ... quotes!
It's called Dance First. Think Later. 618 Rules to Live By, by Kathryn and Ross Petras. It's full of quotes by famous people such as Mario Andretti ("If everything is under control, you're going too slow"), Julia Child ("The only time to eat diet food is while you're waiting for your steak to cook"), and Ray Bradbury ("Don't think. Thinking is the enemy of creativity.").
Are all of these quotes truly words to live by? No, no they are not. But it's a cute collection, and many of the quotes I hadn't seen before. My favorite so far is by Dr. Suess (Theodor Geisel):
"Sometimes the questions are complicated and the answers are simple."
That seems to be the story of my life.
So! If you'd like a copy of this fun little book, leave me an interesting quotation by Friday, February 25 at midnight, EST. I'll pick a winner and post her name on Saturday. (Yes, men can win too. Please don't get pronoun picky with me.)

Against all odds, Scissorbill has won the book! Please send me your address, and I will alert the publisher to get it in the mail. Congrats!
It arrived today! Thank you so much. My current favorite:
"Love one another and you will be happy. It's as simple and as difficult as that." Michael Leunig, cartoonist.
I LOVE that! That's what I tell my kids -- love is the meaning of life!
