Hearing aid: ronan keating // when you say nothing at all
(what happened to him anyway?)

Man is flying too fast for a world that is round. Soon he will catch up with himself in a great rear end collision.
- James Thurber

I have never heard of this man, Thurber, before. But he has said numerous fantastic sayings, entirely quote-worthy. For example:

'Sixty minutes of thinking of any kind is bound to lead to confusion and unhappiness.'

'The dog has got more fun out of Man than Man has got out of the dog, for the clearly demonstrable reason that Man is the more laughable of the two animals.'

'Well, if I called the wrong number, why did you answer the phone?'

'Sophistication might be described as the ability to cope gracefully with a situation involving the presence of a formidable menace to one's poise and prestige (such as the butler, or the man under the bed - but never the husband).'

yeah (: how could you not like this guy?

So, WHO is James Thurber? you should google/wikipedia him like i did.
