“There's a Polar Bear
In our Frigidaire--
He likes it 'cause it's cold in there.
With his seat in the meat
And his face in the fish
And his big hairy paws
In the buttery dish,
He's nibbling the noodles,
And munching the rice,
He's slurping the soda,
He's licking the ice.
And he lets out a roar
If you open the door.
And it gives me a scare
To know he's in there--
That Polary Bear
In our Fridgitydaire.”
― Shel Silverstein, A Light in the Attic

“If you want to know what a man's like, take a good look at how he treats his inferiors, not his equals.”

“Friendship ... is born at the moment when one man says to another "What! You too? I thought that no one but myself . . .”
