Smart Eli

I was watching clips of Persuasion today while folding laundry (the 1995 version--the only correct and true and holy version) and Eli said, "Why in movies do they alway show that the men's hands are so much bigger than the girl's hands?"

Because romantic hand-holding shots make us swoon, little man. Perceptive of you to notice.

"The story is told that in ancient Rome a group of women were, with vanity, showing their jewels one to another. Among them was Cornelia, the mother of two boys. One of the women said to her, 'And where are your jewels?' To which Cornelia responded, pointing to her sons, 'These are my jewels.' They grew to be two of the most persuasive and effective reformers in Roman history. It is so obvious that the great good and the terrible evil in the world today are the sweet and the bitter fruits of the rearing of yesterday's children. As we train a new generation, so will the world be in a few years. If you are worried about the future, then look to the upbringing of your children." Gordan B. Hinckley, President of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints
