Let the road be rough and dreary
And its end far out of sight,
Foot it bravely, strong or weary–
Trust in God and do the right.

If a man will begin with certainties,
he shall end in doubts;
but if he will be content to begin with doubts,
he shall end in certainties.

And now, the end is here
And so I face the final curtain
–“My Way” sung by Frank Sinatra

The final curtain is here for Carl’s Quote of the Day… or maybe it’s just time for intermission. When I started Carl’s Quote of the Day I told myself it would not be a flash in the pan, but something that would go on for a while. “For a while” will be ten years next Monday. I could not find time to send any Carl’s Quote of the Day emails last week and that made me realize that perhaps it was time to stop. I won’t stop collecting quotes; I’ve been doing that since long before Carl’s Quote of the Day. Anyway, this is the last week for Carl’s Quote of the Day – maybe forever, or maybe I’ll send out something occasionally, or maybe I’ll resume every weekday at some point. I just don’t know. But this week the theme is “end.”

Oh, and if you really must have a daily quote, I recommend Duvall’s Daily Quote to which you can subscribe by emailing DuvallsDailyQuote@nc.rr.com
