Welcome to WORDY WEDNESDAY


So on lots of blogs, I often come across "Wordless Wednesday" posts where the authors of blogs simply post a picture. I get this idea as Wednesday can be a trying day in Western Society. It's the middle of the week and any rest saved up from the previous weekend has been spent. At the same time Friday is just too far away to seem like it is within our grasp. Hence, brain cells are fried.

But here at Bicycle Built 4 Two, I have once again decided to swim up mainstream and from this day forth declare every Wednesday as Wordy Wednesday in which I will post quotes or poems or both from people in the world who have at some point expressed themselves in such a way as to make it unforgettable.

Feel free to post quotes or poetry you enjoy in the comments or e-mail me some of your favorites and I'll post 'em.



I'm just a human being trying to make it in a world that is very rapidly losing its understanding of being human. John Trudell Native American Activist, Poet & Musician

Do not worry about your difficulties in Mathematics. I can assure you mine are still greater. Albert Einstien US (German-born) physicist (1879 - 1955)

Those who dream by day are cognizant of many things which escape those who dream only by night. Edgar Allen Poe US Author (1809-1849)

Things do not change; we change. Henry David Thoreau US Author (1817 - 1862)

When you have only two pennies left in the world, buy a loaf of bread with one, and a lily with the other. Chinese Proverb

If we value independence, if we are disturbed by the growing conformity of knowledge, of values, of attitudes, which our present system induces, then we may wish to set up conditions of learning which make for uniqueness, for self-direction, and for self-initiated learning. Carl Rogers US Psychologist (1902 - 1987)

If you're not living life on the edge, you're taking up too much space. Anonymous
