Dueling Quotes – A Napkin Kin Challenge

by | May 8, 2015 | 5 comments

Here I have two quotes that both start with the same part of a sentence.  They then go in completely different directions.

And so I have a challenge for you!

  • Challenge question:  Which quote is the original quote, #1 or #2?
    1. “Most folks are about as happy as they make up their minds to be”
    2. “Most folks are about as happy as they can fake.”
  • Bonus question:  Who said the original quote? And yes, it’s the honor system for you to not look it up.
  • Personal question:  Which one do you think is more accurate and why?

Let me know your answers in the comments!

      Hi Divina, Turns out it is the 3rd quote that I was thinking of. But I think all 4 really do fit pretty well.
