“Rosalynn said, Jimmy, if we could only get Prime Minister Begin and President Sadat up here on this mountain for a few days, I believe they might consider how they could prevent another war between their countries. That gave me the idea, and a few weeks later, I invited both men to join me for a series of private talks. In September 1978, they both came to Camp David.”

“You may say a cat uses good grammar. Well, a cat doesbut you let a cat get excited once; you let a cat get to pulling fur with another cat on a shed, nights, and youll hear grammar that will give you the lockjaw. Ignorant people think its the noise which fighting cats make that is so aggravating, but it aint so; its the sickening grammar they use.”
—Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (18351910)
