Quotable Quote... (QQ) is a series that I had fortuitously started in my office; where I used to send a quote daily (almost) to people who had subscribed for it & by the time I stopped it a few years back, there were a whooping 550 subscribers across organizations :) This blog is to relive those quotes... All quotes are from a personalized collection, hand written in a notebook ... originally created by my aunt ... later inherited and augmented by me :) Cheers!!!

@keshi -> never mind ... those who cudnt understand it were not worthy of being your friend ... :)
Dude this is a catch 22 as always...
If you are just giving advice free then it works but if you are asked for advice that means the person is close to you and that means they are in some sort of dilemma and that just means that they need to be "pleased" for the moment....
and friends is fine - have you tried not pleasing the mom or the significant other?
@ceedy -> lol ... am sure it wud be a loose all situation then :)
Very true :)
