“No one can really pull you up very high — you lose your grip on the rope. But on your own two feet you can climb mountains.”

Camel Donning a Wreath - Why Not?
Painting this wreath was the November challenge over at Paint My Photo. I had a great time jazzing this camel up for the holidays. The wreath photo was contributed by Donna Sommer.
About Louis Brandeis
American judge Louis Brandeis was the first Jewish Supreme Court Justice, and one of the most influential Justices in the history of the Court. He was born in Kentucky in 1856 to Czech-born parents. He graduated from high school at age 14 and later became head of his class at Harvard Law School. As a Justice, many of his decisions created greater protections for individual rights of privacy and free speech. He died in 1941. Brandeis University was named in his honor.
