OH, now I get it. I started to look up a quote for today, thinking SENNA was an ancient #greek something or other. But the reason they call the dog Senna in #uppermiddlebogan is because that's a famous RACER! I guess I was thinking of Seneca........

Another example of incredibly rapid rising water just south of Chapel Hill. The Haw River has risen 15 ft in 5 hours and forecast to crest tomorrow very close to an all-time record. #Chantal

The way a crow
Shook down on me
The dust of snow
From a hemlock tree
Has given my heart
A change of mood
And saved some part
Of a day I had rued.

"I would prefer not to."
Authenticated quote. Who said it? Bartleby the Scrivener!

Unsourced quote memes and misattributed quotes are not my thing.
If the words are so powerful, let's respect them enough to credit the actual person who said them!
Otherwise it’s just vibes disguised as wisdom. This is why I started the QuoteShirtCartel.
