Dead this date for 400 years, I can think of no one's words which make me happier than William Shakespeare's



 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Because ... 
 
his heroes are men, that the love and hatred, the hopes and fears, of his chief personages are such as common to other human beings. ... Shakespeare's excellence is not the fiction of a tale, but the representation of life: and his reputation is therefore safe, till human nature shall be changed.

-- Samuel Johnson

Happiness is "Taxing Deadlines" By Madeleine Begun Kane









Taxing Deadlines
By Madeleine Begun Kane (here):

Did you file your 1040? Not me!
Cuz I need an extension, you see.
Could not get it together.
I’m blaming the weather.
Do I wish it was finished? Mais oui!
