Tart words make no friends; a spoonful or honey will catch more flies than a gallon of vinegar. - Benjamin Franklin
Everyone knows that I am a huge nerd and have my share of colonial crushes. Mr. Jefferson because he was both a looker and a greater writer, John Adams because of his passion, Ben Franklin for his wit. I especially appreciate wit. I also value this sentiment. It is true. Just like it is hard to be angry wearing read shoes or cry over a lollipop. Another honey-lover proclaims,"You can not be uncheered by a balloon."-Winnie the Pooh. They are both very wise.
Trying to win people over by being tart has gotten me nowhere lately. I will try honey instead and see where that gets me!
