From the rear cover

"The first rule of holes: when you're in one, stop digging." --Molly Ivins, Writer

"Some days you're a bug. Some days you're a windshield." --Price Cobb, Race Car Driver

"In times like these it is good to remember there have always been times like these." --Paul Harvey, Radio Broadcaster

When life hands you lemons, it's inspiring to hear from people who've made (and drunk) the lemonade. People who've been there, done that, and lived to tell the tale. Who've graduated from the school of hard knocks and never lost their sense of humor. People like Mark Twain, Warren Buffett, Marlene Dietrich, Natalie Goldberg, Amarillo Slim, Fran Lebowitz, Michael Jordan. People who know, as the writer Sherry Hochman puts it, that "Every day is a gift--even if it sucks."
