Favorite quotes about baldness :-)

Mary, I've always felt that the first and second quotes are a tidbit...let's say, caustic. LOL But I love the third quote, which I can't believe I forgot. ;-)

Yes, I admit that the first one, especially, is "in your face". I came up with it the day I said "Yes, I'm bald" two times to a guy who wouldn't stop staring at me. Some days I just feel like wearing that shirt!
I'll add one more - not really a "saying", but something I tend to reply when people compliment me on the shape of my head. After I thank them, I say "Who knew it was there all those years!" It always gets a smile. ( ;-)

“When others kid me about being bald, I simply tell them that the way I figure it, the good Lord only gave men so many hormones, and if others want to waste theirs on growing hair, that’s up to them.”
- John Glenn
"I don’t care if they call me 'baldie' or 'chrome dome.' God took an eraser and brushed my head clean. I’d rather be bald on top than bald inside."
- Joe Garagiola
"If you find yourself balding, remember this. No matter how you feel about your hair loss, you held the power to determine how you viewed your life before this worrisome discovery. You decided whether or not you would let things get to you, and you made adjustments in yourself and how you viewed the world around you when you did not like what you saw in it.
"Now that there will be fewer strands on that fine, wonderful head of yours, you still have the power to define how you perceive and are perceived. You determine how baldness will be viewed, by how you wear it, and how you project it. You can decide if you are truly losing something, or gaining an opportunity to redefine yourself."
- Steve Woods

Better a bald head than no head at all”

Quirky bald quotes: We can lie in the language of dress or try to tell the truth; but unless we are naked and bald, it is impossible to be silent.

When their city was occupied by the Gauls, and the Romans, who were besieged in the Capitol, had made military engines from the hair of the women, they dedicated a temple to the Bald Venus.
Lactantius
A big advantage of being bald is that you can style your hair with a damp cloth.
- Anonymous
Bald as the bare mountain tops are bald, with a baldness full of grandeur.
- Matthew Arnold
The blind man is laughing at the bald head.
- Persian proverb
The most delightful advantage of being bald - one can hear snowflakes.
- R. G. Daniels

It takes both the sun and the rain to create a beautiful rainbow.
(I think of the rain being my hairloss, but, the rainbow is my everyday after, for I have to live, a good one, hair or no hair. :)

Galvin, I feel that way every time I I leave home on a simmering summer day. ;-)

Okay, at the risk of offending those who prefer to wear a wig (not that there's anything wrong with that), another of my favorite sayings is:
"Life is too short to wear a wig."
