On Seeing the Forest for the Trees
“What does a fish know about the water in which it swims all its life?”
-Albert Einstein
Is it possible for a fish to swim its entire life and never know of the ocean?
If so, does it make you wonder what you’re missing, swimming through your own life?

I used this quote on my blog (Roxiticus Desperate Housewives) the other day and thought of you:
“When a man sits with a pretty girl for an hour, it seems like a minute. But let him sit on a hot stove for a minute – and it’s longer than any hour. That’s relativity.”
I don't think I've seen it on your blog, but you're welcome to use it.

Thanks Roxiticus! This is a good one, I'll surely use it. Thanks for thinking of me on this and following my blog. I'll return the favor.

Poor old Einstein, having weird thoughts like that all the time! Fish, of course, are blissfully free of thoughts.
Glad I could find an Albert Einstein quote that you hadn't already used! I guess Gorilla Bananas is right, Al was always thinking…
