Charm,

An old proverb says "One swallow does not make a summer". I'm sure there are some who'd say one swallow would certainly make their day.

Luckily (knocking wood), I am among the swallowing population (still in induction chemo phase - it's not the swallowing, but making sure it stays swallowed I worry about). I read your request for quotes, did a search on the net, and the proverb caught my eye.

I recall reading quite a few things here that I thought at the time were noteworthy (but didn't make note). Maybe I'll have another browse. I'm sure you'll get lots of quotes from people who actually retain most of what they read, instead of devouring it, and moving on to the next item. I think there are a lot of people like me here, reading as much as they can on whatever topic they're looking into at the moment, then moving on to the next subject.
