napkins.

what quote would you print on a napkin?

at a cafe in london three and a half years ago,
i found this quote as i wiped my face:

"The idols of today are unmistakable --
self-esteem without effort, fame without achievement,sex without consequences, wealth without responsibility, pleasure without struggle and experience without commitment."
-Rabbi Jonathan Sacks


and found this one today. not on a napkin, but i like it just the same:

“We need not look far in the world to know that the wisdom of the wise has perished and that the understanding of the prudent has come to naught. That wisdom for which the world should seek is the wisdom which comes from God.

The only understanding that will save the world is divine understanding.”

– Gordon B. Hinckley
