The wisdom of Chili Davis

"Growing old is mandatory. Growing up is optional."

Chili Davis (b. 1960)

Honestly, I never heard of Chili Davis before I read this searing insight on the Cryptoquote page of my newspaper….and I don't have that baseball card with his picture on it……..obviously, wisdom-wise, he's a step up from Yogi……and maybe my snooty little comment about Yogi just confirms that I'm having a bit more success with the mandatory part than I am with the optional part…..

More wisdom from a baseball guy

Addendum from my sister, who knows a lot more than Chili knows:

"If growing up means
It would be beneath my dignity to climb a tree,
I'll never grow up, never grow up, never grow up
Not me!"

Peter Pan (b. 1902)
