Subject: Re: quotation collection

Hi all:

Forgive my longtime lurker status, things being what they are these days; I
also apologize for multiple mailings of this post. As some of you might
know, I have a large stash of archaeology quotations on my website here:

http://archaeology.about.com/od/quotations/a/quotations.htm

Mitch Allen has convinced me that a collection of quotations about the past
and archaeology might make an interesting and useful book for his Left Coast
Press. I'd like to add more to my collection anything that y'all might
suggest. I'd need a full citation--but I'm willing to do some searching  if
it's a keeper.

So--does anybody have any additional quotes that you've loved and used over
the years? I'm thinking the kind of stuff that you print out and attach to
your peg board. If so, send them along! Please pass this on to anyone who
might be interested.

Much thanks in advance,

Kris
