    Great quotes! I especially like Yogi Berra’s. I wonder if all the quotes attributed to him are genuine? Who cares? His quotes are wonderfully inane and illogical. I also like what he said about a particular restaurant. “Oh that place! No one goes there anymore – it’s too crowded. You can’t get a table.”
