From Uncle John's Bathroom Calendar, page a day:
John James Audubon. The National Audubon Society was founded in 1905 in his honor, which is a wildlife conservation society.
Audubon painted pictures birds. He shot them and posed the corpses with wires in life-like poses in order to paint them.
George Washington's family moto was Exitus acta probat, "The end justifies the means."
We have a local builder who is retired now, but his motto was "It is easier to ask forgiveness than it is to ask permission".
ReplyDeleteJudy,
ReplyDeleteI heard that before.
That is so true.
