Post a CommentAnother great quote. As a child, I used to enjoy writing invisible messages, then heating them up to become visible.

Your wisdom is never ending my friend.
Powerful imagery. Reminds me of what sculptors say about the figure hidden within the stone waiting to be chiseled out...
Very good quote of the week. Thanks!
I like this and I wish it'd work in reverse, with writers being able to decide which visible words could become invisible, if the writers changed their minds. That is why I am grateful for the self-publish, display only option :)
excellent words of wisdom !..............
