“I like lights on buildings, because without them you wouldn't be able to see all the beauty in the world.” (About the lights on the football field at the local highschool.)
Emily McClelland (1998- )
Every man sees in his relatives, and especially in his cousins, a series of grotesque caricatures of himself.
H.L. Mencken (1880-1956) American Author, Humorist
“If we call these foothills, can we call the little trees 'foot trees?''' (While driving in the foothills.)
Emily McClelland (at age 5)
'Happiness is having a large, loving, caring, close-knit family in another city.'
