Quotations
Oct. 9th, 2018 11:12 am I have a diary that at the bottom of each two-page spread gives a quotation.
Recently the quotation was "Both my marriages were failures! Number one departed, and number two stayed" which it attributes to Gustav Mahler.
Nice quotation, and I even found it on a quotation website:

Trouble is, as far as I can tell, Mahler only married once. His wife was the famous Alma Shindler, immortalised in song by Tom Lehrer.
