Fonder and Fonder

'Whatever happens,' she says, 'please make us fonder and fonder of each other - forever and ever.' Does that sound mistrustful? It isn't really; but one should never make the mistake of asking for less than one hopes, and means to get.' Denis Mackail Greenery Street

  1. Ooooh, I like that "one should never make the mistake of asking for less than one hopes, and means to get"! I think we could all take a lesson from those words. People can't read our minds, and you would be surprised at how often they are willing to give you what you want if you are brave enough to tell them exactly what that is.
