My Quote of the Day Calendar

Okay, as many of you who follow me here know, I have this very cool quote-of-the-day calendar called Woman's Wit. Every day there's another funny or inspirational or wise quote from a famous woman. Everyone from writers to activists to actresses to comediennes to politicians has been represented. And there have been some TRULY inspiring quotes in there (some of which I've blogged about). Plus a few that have cracked me up.

For example, here is Maya Angelou's bon mot from October 1:

Courage is the most important of all the virtues, because without courage you can't practice any other virtue consistently. You can practice any virtue erratically, but nothing consistently without courage.

Great, right? So imagine my consternation when I tore off October 29 and got this little tidbit on October 30/31:

I give a quote and then it's blogged about for the rest of my life on the internet. - Kirsten Dunst

Right, um . . . so I feel . . . badly for you? But really, Kirsten, have you ever said anything so very interesting that it'll really be blogged about for the REST of your LIFE? And also, where else, but the internet, would it be blogged about? Just curious.

Of course, I just blogged about her quote. So perhaps she has a point. Crap. I hate it when I become part of the problem.
