O. Henry
A straw vote only shows which way the hot air blows.
Inject a few raisins of conversation into the tasteless dough of life.
Write what you like; there is no other rule.
Life is sobs, sniffles, and smiles, with sniffles predominating.
Life is made up of sobs, sniffles and smiles, with sniffles predominating.
It was beautiful and simple, as truly great swindles are.
