One From the Archive

I was going through some old shots that I had never processed and stumbled across this one. Despite fog and cold, this was one of those opportunity of a lifetime moments that will go with me forever. I desperately want to return to this spot, hopefully on a day when the weather is more cooperative. Thought I’d share it with you.

I’ve always loved a good quote, especially one I can throw out in a presentation. I ran across these this week and couldn’t resist sharing them.

“So the writer who breeds more words than he needs, is making a chore for the reader who reads.”

“Don't cry because it's over. Smile because it happened.”

“Be who you are and say what you feel because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind.”

“You have brains in your head. You have feet in your shoes. You can steer yourself in any direction you choose. You're on your own. And you know what you know. You are the guy who'll decide where to go.”

The first one fits perfectly with my philosophy on writing. It sounds a lot like something Mark Twain once said. Can anyone tell me where this image was taken and who said each of these four quotes.
