Quote of the Week

Quote of the Week 1/16/12

January 16, 2012

So, I’ve decided that I hate online classes. And classes in general. I just want to learn, I don’t want to have to bother with watching 13 videos about how to use the website and uploading an entire word document with the words “I have watched all 13 videos about how to use this website.” Seriously. It’s a class on powerpoint. I’ve been using Powerpoint since middle school. And I know you think using all of those different colors and bolds and italics in your instructions makes it “easier to read” but really, you’re giving me a seizure. Most of the time, simpler is better.

But I digress. The point of all of this was to share with you my frustrations so that you will understand why I’m such a fan of the following quote by Ben Franklin. And no matter your stresses or burdens, I’m sure we can all agree with Mr. Franklin’s timeless wisdom.

“Wine makes daily living easier, less hurried, with fewer tensions and more tolerance.”

— Benjamin Franklin
