Stupids

I've come to the conclusion, after reading an article in Reader's Digest, that famous people were never meant to talk. They should just walk around being beautiful - but being silently beautiful - because the majority of them need to go back to kindergarten and learn how to be nice, they need to go back to high school and remember what it was like to be a normal, hormonal teenager, and they need to go back to college and actually go to class this time.

A picture of Jennifer Garner, smiling sweetly with a slightly tilted head (the Sear's pose) is posted next to her quote:
"It's not a bad thing, is it, to be strong in some ways and fragile and vulnerable in others?"
Yes, Jennifer, it's a very bad thing... naughty naughty girl! You must either be completely strong and robotic and iron-fisted or delicate and emotionaly fragile like a wilted honeydew colored chrysanthamum.

Lance Armstrong, famous athlete (duh,) said this in The London Times:
"When I was sick, I didn't want to die. When I race, I don't want to lose. Dying and losing, it's the same thing." *Sigh... wow. I don't think I'll ever get to that point in athletics... although most of you can attest to the fact that even though sometimes when I don't jump as high as I could on the trampoline, I don't ever EVER let it win! I get right back on that thing and whip it. I WILL NEVER FAIL!

Anyway...

This extremely deep, thought-provoking quote was from Matthew Perry:
"While this door is closing, another door is opening. It's our job to go find that door." I don't mean to be overly cynical folks, but haven't a million parents said that to their kids for as long as the earth has been in existence? I bet even before they had doors, people were saying it. I can picture young indian mother Wanatikitichi telling her depressed daughter, "When another hut falls over because we didn't make it right, another one will be made... right this time... and it won't fall over... hopefully."
Or what about, "While this door is closing, the back door is opening, because this door opening causes a suction in the house and opens the back door." I can picture my dad saying that.

Anyway, the question is, do celebrities think that these things are so original or so profound just becuause THEY thought them? and it should be RE-quoted and printed in the Reader's Digest? Whatever.

I'll end with this quote from Dolly Parton:
"It costs a lot of money to look this cheap."
We can all learn a lesson in self-value from this one.
