"The time to make up your mind about people is never."
Katherine Hepburn, as Tracy Lord in The Philadelphia Story, 1940

Roberta, one of your best! Sometimes the briefest thought can be the most telling. I have SO much trouble modifying the tendencies of my mind/psyche/who-knows-what to form instant opinions that pigeon-hole people. Not that my initial or seminal impressions always prove to be wrong. Sometimes they are more or less correct at the outset - but things change! So even if I figure out where somebody is coming from, and where I fit in, that's only valid for a little while. Thank you for reminding me how important it is not to EVER have my mind made up about somebody.

Great movie.
Great quote!
Ah, I do love that movie. We've discovered similar taste in movies before, haven't we?
