- Horace Walpole
Think. Feel. Ever wonder what life is for those who 'don't think, just do'? (perhaps they never laugh)... or those who 'think twice before you do anything'? (they laugh twice as much as other people). Or... what about Einstein who said, "I think and think for months and years. Ninety-nine times, the conclusion is false. The hundredth time I am right."? (he must have laughed the hell of a lot).
Well... better learn from David Ogilvy, then: "The best ideas come as jokes. Make your thinking as funny as possible." (even if you don't actually get great ideas, at least you're having fun trying to generate some).
Now... how about those who feel? Jean Kerr said, "The average, healthy, well-adjusted adult gets up at seven-thirty in the morning feeling just plain terrible." (an utter tragedy, if you remember the first quote at the top of this blog post... plus, it does not bode well for the below-average, not-so-healthy, ill-adjusted adult)
Another tragic thing coming from Oscar Wilde (good old Oscar, I'm so fond of this guy): "Whenever people agree with me I always feel I must be wrong." (confidence, Oscar... confidence!)
Oh, now that we're talking about words... ever get frustrated because you're trying so hard to remember something (like the meaning of a word in a different language--the most frustrating sort) and you just CANNOT? Excruciating isn't it? Here's something that wouldn't help at all: Antonym, n.: The opposite of the word you're trying to think of.
There you go. I'm just sayin'...
