Henry David Thoreau

Thomas Jefferson

The trick is always to write in pairs because if at least two people find it funny, you've immediately halved the odds of it not being funny.

Only that day dawns to which we are awake. There is more day to dawn. The sun is but a morning star.

Henry David Thoreau
