Freebsd Fortunes 2

A hacker does for love what others would not do for money.

A halted retreat
Is nerve-wracking and dangerous.
To retain people as men -- and maidservants
Brings good fortune.

A hammer sometimes misses its mark - a bouquet never.

A handful of friends is worth more than a wagon of gold.

A handful of patience is worth more than a bushel of brains.

A healthy male adult bore consumes each year one and a half times his own
weight in other people's patience.
                -- John Updike

A help wanted add for a photo journalist asked the rhetorical question:

If you found yourself in a situation where you could either save
a drowning man, or you could take a Pulitzer prize winning
photograph of him drowning, what shutter speed and setting would
you use?

                -- Paul Harvey

A Hen Brooding Kittens
        A friend informs us that he saw at the Novato ranch, Marin county,
a few days since, a hen actually brooding and otherwise caring for three
kittens!  The gentleman upon whose premises this strange event is transpiring
says the hen adopted the kittens when they were but a few days old, and that
she has devoted them her undivided care for several weeks past.  The young
felines are now of respectable size, but they nevertheless follow the hen at
her cluckings, and are regularly brooded at night beneath her wings.
                -- Sacramento Daily Union, July 2, 1861

A hermit is a deserter from the army of humanity.

A highly intelligent man should take a primitive woman.  Imagine if on top
of everything else, I had a woman who interfered with my work.
                -- Adolf Hitler
