My Favorite Quotes from A Christmas Carol #25 – He has the power to render us happy or unhappy…
He has the power to render us happy or unhappy; to make our service light or burdensome; a pleasure or a toil. Say that his power lies in words and looks; in things so slight and insignificant that it is impossible to add and count ’em up: what then? The happiness he gives is quite as great as if it cost a fortune.”
Charles Dickens. A Christmas Carol

My Favorite Quotes from A Christmas Carol #24 – …tuned like fifty stomachaches.
They went in. At sight of an old gentleman in a Welsh wig, sitting behind such a high desk, that if he had been two inches taller, he must have knocked his head against the ceiling, Scrooge cried in great excitement: “Why, it’s old Fezziwig! Bless his heart, it’s Fezziwig alive again!”

As an amateur guitar player, this is a fantastic tool that allows me to achieve the following:
1) Save the environment by recycling plastic
2) Save money through making these for myself and friends
3) Experience different sounds through different plastics and thicknesses

My Favorite Quotes from A Christmas Carol #22 – Too much getting up by candlelight…
There was an earthly savour in the air, a chilly bareness in the place, which associated itself somehow with too much getting up by candle-light, and not too much to eat.
