After the royal family was forced to Paris in October of 1789, Louis XVI and Marie Antoinette resumed preparing their son, Louis Charles, for his role as the future king. One day, the royal family visited a hospital for abandoned children. Marie Antoinette told Louis Charles:
“My son, you are here in an asylum for poor orphans abandoned by their parents. Never forget what you have seen, and extend your protection one day to these unfortunates.”
Louis Charles took a great interest in the hospital, and frequently requested to visit. During this period, he also began to keep his pocket money in a little box given to him by his aunt Elisabeth.
His father, who saw him counting his money inside the box, told him: “What, Charles, you are hoarding like a miser!”
The child replied: “Yes, father, I am a miser, but it is for the poor lost children.“

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO CLARK GABLE!!! (February 1st, 1901- November 16th, 1960)
“The tough thing about describing Clark Gable is there’s nothing bad to say.” - Mervyn Leroy
“Clark is the great lover without any of the morbid, tragic aspects of emotionalism. He is the type whom a woman could roll the hills and highways of the world, loving and laughing lustily. He doesn’t take himself seriously in any way, which is his greatest charm. He would never die for love. He would be far more likely to laugh and ride away, leaving you breathless.” -Norma Shearer
