Rain

Lewis Grizzard Author, Humorist

""Have you done your homework?" my mother would ask. "I'll do it later." "You will do it now, young man. I don't want you winding up on the third shift at Flagg-Utica." Flagg-Utica was a local textile plant. Somehow, I never could figure how failing to read three chapters in my geography book about the various sorts of vegetation to be found in a tropical rain forest had anything to do with facing a life as a mill hand. But with enough guilt and fear as catalysts, you can read anything, even geography books and Deuteronomy."

Simone Elkeles Author

"Does she realize she looks like a sunflower, ready to rain sunlight on all who look down upon her?"

Prince Musician, Singer, Songwriter

"There's always a rainbow at the end of every rain."

Omar Khayyam Poet, Mathematician, Astronomer

"When you are so full of sorrow that you can't walk, can't cry anymore, think about the green foliage that sparkles after the rain. When the daylight exhausts you, when you hope a final night will cover the world, think about the awakening of a young child."
