Sing Quotations
I was asked to act when I couldn't act. I was asked to sing 'Funny Face' when I couldn't sing, and dance with Fred Astaire when I couldn't dance - and do all kinds of things I wasn't prepared for. Then I tried like mad to cope with it.
Audrey Hepburn

Plato
A bird doesn't sing because it has an answer, it sings because it has a song.

Sai Baba
