While walking a man paused periodically to scrawl these in a small book.

Do you hear the man on the plunging plane exhorting his fellow passengers, with no oxygen mask on himself, to put their oxygen masks on before trying to help other passengers?

In that same man’s defense:  he’s excellent at several different hobbies.

Wishful thinking makes no more than a wish.

Stopping to note a thing doesn’t make it noteworthy.
