#January 29, 1860
#OTD Anton #Chekhov, #Russian #Playwright & #Writer, is born.
He wrote:
"People don't notice whether it's #Winter or #Summer when they're #Happy."
In Soviet Six Pack, he wrote,
"People are like #Trees in a #Forest;
No #Botanist would think of studying each individual #Birch #Tree."
Finally, in his delightful #Ivanov, he wrote,
"This #Life of ours!
Human life is like a flower gloriously #Blooming in a #Meadow...
Along comes a #Goat,
Eats it up —
No more #Flower."
