A Yogi Berra Quote From ELLIOTT ERWITT + What It Inspired

    Hooda Helami sharing a page with one of the greatest
    American photographers of all time: how flattering.
    ELLIOTT ERWITT is alive at ninety-five and his Yogi Berra-ism
    is nothing short of profound.

      I have to thank Mrs. CarPeo for introducing me
      to ERWIITT's exquisitely simple and profound words,
      which are the whole point of having Yogi Berra-isms

    In this quote, Hooda seems impervious to the idea of parenthood.

      Parents create children who learn to finger-paint
      which —according to the darkest interpretations—
      is a forerunner of finger-pointing
      and the blame-game
