Splash du Jour: Friday


All happy families resemble one another, each unhappy family is unhappy in its own way.
So begins my favorite novel of all time. Anna Karenina.
It was written by my favorite author of all time. Leo Tolstoy.
Today is Tolstoy’s birthday. He was born in the province of Tula, Russia, on this day in 1828. In my opinion, no one has written anything better than The Lion did, before or since.
Truth, like gold, is to be obtained not by its growth, but by washing away from it all that is not gold.
-- Leo Tolstoy –
Have a great Friday!
