Quotations

I often use quotation in my mail art, altered books and collages. Sitting here this evening I opened a small book "Instant Quotation Dictionary". It's a nice size that can easily be tucked into a jacket pocket, or a purse. Good for waiting rooms.....

The quotations are arranged alphabetically by subject. The first subject is ABILITY. The second entry under that heading is this quotation. I"ll probably use it on some post cards.
"Consider the postage stamp: its usefulness consists in the ability to stick to one thing till it gets there. " Quote is attributed to Josh Billings.
