The lampshade on my head is for my bright ideas. I won't be able to convey them until Monday, when my curtain gets out of the dry cleaners.

About This Quote

A lampshade is a round, flat, decorative cover that attaches to the ceiling to conceal the light bulbs of an electric lamp. This phrase comes from a story about an author's amazing ideas that are hidden away until he can show them to the world. The expression implies that having bright ideas is valuable, but it is not valuable enough for us to make the effort to share our bright ideas with others.
