Thought for the Day

[Duke of Buckingham]

My Thought for the Day, is to all that like to gamble with life.


If you're playing a poker game and you look around the table and and can't tell who the sucker is, it's you.

Paul Newman


Well, capitalism is going to grow and grow. The nature of it is that the guy who has the most poker chips on the table has more leverage than everyone else. He can eventually outbluff everyone else and outraise everyone else at the table. That's what has happened and it needs to be corrected.

Simon Baker


Life, like poker has an element of risk. It shouldn't be avoided. It should be faced.

Edward Norton


I sail, run dogs, ride horses, play professional poker and tell stories about the stuff I've been through. And I'm still a romantic; I still want Bambi to make it out of the fire.

Gary Paulsen

“If after I die, people want to write my biography, there is nothing simpler. They only need two dates: the date of my birth and the date of my death. Between one and another, every day is mine.”

― Fernando Pessoa, Poems of Fernando Pessoa

Visits always give pleasure, if not the arrival, the departure.

Portuguese quote

“It is better to be hated for what you are than to be loved for what you are not.”

― André Gide, Autumn Leaves

[Duke of Buckingham]

We will honor every challenge with our presence.
We will win or not but most important of all, we will be there.

Being first have some duties, I think.

Genesis - Follow You Follow Me [Official Music Video]

Stay with me
My love, I hope you'll always be
Right here by my side if ever I need you
Oh, my love

In your arms
I feel so safe and so secure
And everyday is such a perfect day to spend
Alone with you

I will follow you, will you follow me?
All the days and nights that we know will be
I will stay with you, will you stay with me?
Just one single tear in each passing year

With the dark
Oh, I see so very clearly now
All my fears are drifting by me
So slowly now, fading away

I can say
The night is long but you are here
Close at hand, oh, I'm better for the smile you give
And while I live

I will follow you, will you follow me?
All the days and nights that we know will be
I will stay with you, will you stay with me?
Just one single tear in each passing year there will be

I will follow you, will you follow me?
All the days and nights that we know will be
I will stay with you, will you stay with me?
Just one single tear in each passing year

I will follow you, will you follow me?
All the days and nights that we know will be
I will stay with you, will you stay with me?
Just one single tear in each passing year

I will follow you, will you follow me?
All the days and nights that we know will be
I will stay with you, will you stay with me?

A German woman of 65 years is pregnant with quadruplets. Annegret Raunigk, which already has 13 children and seven grandchildren, could become the oldest woman in the world to give birth to quadruplets. "I'm not afraid, I remain in good health and fit," said Raunigk.
