“When I was in high school I thought a vocation was a particular calling. Here’s a voice: “Come, follow me.” My idea of a calling now is not: “Come.” It’s like what I’m doing right now, not what I’m going to be. Life is a calling.”
—Rebecca Sweeney (b. 1938)

—Robert Benchley (1889–1945)
“A drunkard would not give money to sober people. He said they would only eat it, and buy clothes and send their children to school with it.”
