The Epicure

Thornton Wilder would have been 115 years old today.

The author of such favorites as "The Bridge of San Luis Rey," "Our Town," and "The Matchmaker" died in 1975 in Hamden CT.

Several good quotes from him:

"My advice to you is not to inquire into why or whither, but just enjoy your ice cream while it's on your plate. (The Skin of Our Teeth)

"Money is like manure; it's not worth a thing unless it's spread around encouraging young things to grow." (The Matchmaker)
