Never compare your inside with somebody else's outside
















Life is no brief candle to me. It is sort of a splendid torch which I have got hold of for a moment,
and I want to make it burn as brightly as possible before handing it on to future generations.
-- George Bernard Shaw (1856-1950) Irish Playwright


No man or woman of the humblest sort can really be strong, gentle and good, without the world being better for it, without somebody being helped and comforted by the very existence of that goodness.
-- Phillips Brooks (1835-1893) American Bishop


A man should never be ashamed to own that he has been in the wrong, which is but saying that he is wiser today than he was yesterday.
-- Alexander Pope (1688-1744) English Poet
