And he didn't really know where he was going, but he did know he was going somewhere, because you really have to go somewhere, don't you?
Shel SilversteinI know a way to stay friends forever, There's really nothing to it, I tell you what to do, And you do it.
Shel SilversteinGod says to me with a kind of smile, "Hey how would you like to be God awhile And steer the world?" . . . . "How much do I get? What time is lunch?" . . . . "Gimme back that wheel," says God. "I don't think you're quite ready yet."
Shel SilversteinThanksgiving dinner's sad and thankless. Christmas dinner's dark and blue. When you stop and try to see it From the turkey's point of view. Sunday dinner isn't sunny. Easter feasts are just bad luck. When you see it from the viewpoint of a chicken or a duck. Oh how I once loved tuna salad Pork and lobsters, lamb chops too Till I stopped and looked at dinner From the dinner's point of view.
