I’ve come across a few gems in the recent past and until now, I haven’t shared them very widely.
From a neighbor, on the topic of the job of mayor:
“‘Mayor is the only job where people get mad at you when it snows.”
From a colleague of my friend Adam, on the app Twitter:
“Twitter is for brands that want to be more human, and humans that want to be brands.”
My own, on my initial impressions of my first iPhone:
“It’s amazing, really amazing. It’s great at everything… except being a phone.”
And similarly, on the iPad:
“The iPad is a mobile device, for your home.”
I love stuff like this. It makes me laugh. I think it’s one of the ways that I like to find joy in everyday life, because expressions are things I collect that remind me of the people I heard them from, or perhaps situations I was in.
