this one is "transit quote"-worthy!

So funniest story today!

So a man came in for coffee. Usually customers get a coffee and muffin to go, so I asked him,

"Any muffins for you today?"

and he said, "No thanks, I have to drive."



It made me wonder what we put in those muffins.....?

Not really! It was just hilarious!

on Oscar Wilde......

my favorite quotes from "The Importance of Being Earnest": (I know--there are so many, but I really could have quoted the whole play, it is brilliant!) (Which is YOUR favorite?)


CECILY: "I keep a diary in order to enter the wonderful secrets of my life. If I didn't write them down I should probably forget all about them."


GWENDOLEN: "I never travel without my diary. One should always have something sensational to read in the train."


GWENDOLEN: "In fact, if I may speak candidly--"
CECILY: "Pray do! I think that whenever one has anything unpleasant to say, one should always be quite candid."


ALGERNON: "I hope, Cecily, I shall not offend you if I state quite frankly and openly that you seem to me in every way to be the visible personification of absolute perfection."
CECILY: "I think your frankness does you great credit, Ernest. If you will allow me I will copy your remarks into my diary." [Goes over to table and begins writing in diary.]
ALGERNON: "Do you keep a diary? I'd give anything to look at it. May I?"
CECILY: "Oh, no." [Puts her hand over it.] "You see, it is simply a very young girl's record of her own thoughts and impressions, and consequently meant for publication. When it appears in volume form, I hope you will order a copy. But pray, Ernest, don't stop. I delight in taking down from dictation. I have reached 'absolute perfection'. You can go on. I am quite ready for more."

JACK: "You don't think there is any chance of Gwendolen becoming like her mother in about a hundred and fifty years, do you, Algy?"

MISS PRISM: "Memory, my dear Cecily, is the diary that we all carry about with us."


JACK: "Miss Fairfax, ever since I met you I have admired you more than any other girl.....I have ever met since....I met you."


JACK: "Well......may I propose to you now?"
GWENDOLEN: "I think it would be an admirable opportunity. And to spare you any possible disappointment, Mr Worthing, I think it only fair to tell you quite frankly beforehand that i am fully determined to accept you."


ALGERNON: "My letters! But my own sweet Cecily, I have never written you any letters."
CECILY: "You need hardly remind me of that, Ernest. I remember only too well that I was forced to write your letters for you. I wrote always three times a week and sometimes oftener."
ALGERNON: " Oh, do let me read them, Cecily?"
CECILY: "Oh, I couldn't possibly. That would make you far too conceited. The three you wrote me after I had broken off the engagement are so beautiful, and so badly spelled, that even now I can hardly read them without crying a little."


CECILY: "You must not laugh at me, darling, but it has always been a girlish dream of mine to love someone whose name is Ernest. There is something in that name that seems to inspire absolute confidence."


GWENDOLEN: " You have filled my tea with lumps of sugar, and though I asked most distinctly for bread and butter, you have given me cake. I am known the gentleness of my disposition, and the extraordinary sweetness of my nature, but I warn you, Miss Cardew, you may go too far."

ALGERNON: "You can't possibly ask me to go without having some dinner. It's absurd. I never go without my dinner. No one ever does, except vegetarians and people like that."

CECILY: "Mr. Moncrieff, kindly answer me the following question: Why did you pretend to be my guardian's brother?"
ALGERNON: " In order that I might have an opportunity of meeting you."
CECILY, to Gwendolen: "That certainly seems a satisfactory explanation, does it not?"
GWENDOLEN: "Yes, dear, if you can believe him."
CECILY: "I don't. But that does not affect the wonderful beauty of his answer."
