quotes

"i have never hurried but i am always on time." is a quote that is attributed to talleyrand, napoleon’s foreign minister.
unlike talleyrand i am not the consummate diplomat, far from it, i come from the school of open mouth insert foot diplomacy.
another trait i do not share with talleyrand is the ability to be on time, as several people can attest to. in order for the quote to fit me it was have to read “often hurried, never on time”.

hopefully napoleon’s famous description of talleyrand as being a turd in a silk stocking does not apply to me.
