A couple was arranging for their wedding, and asked the bakery to inscribe the wedding cake with "1 John 4:18" which reads "There is no fear in love, but perfect love casts out fear."

The bakery evidently lost, smudged or otherwise misread the noted reference, and beautifully inscribed on the cake "John 4:18":

"For you have had five husbands, and the man you have now is not your husband."

"Science can tell us how to do many things, but it can not tell us what ought to be done."

A five-year old boy had never spoken a single word.

One afternoon, as he sat eating his lunch he turned to his mother and said, "Soup's cold."

The boy looked at her and replied, "Until now, everything's been great."
