I think it’s very important that we review quotations we cite. A friend of mine has this as his quotation on Facebook:
“Set yourself on fire in the things you believe in, and people will come from miles to watch you burn!â€.
The first thought when I read his quotation was – is this chap on a course to self-destruction? I mean… to be fired up about something isn’t quite the same as setting yourself on fire… and… when people come from miles to watch you burn… gosh… are these your friends or enemies?!
actually, they must be pretty bored to have to travel so far just to amuse themselves at another person’s expense.
Maybe some really bored enemies? Hehehehehehe.
