I have noticed that the people who are late are often so much jollier than the people who have to wait for them. Most of us go to our grave with our music still inside of us. Some mistakes are too much fun to only make once. Everything should be made as simple as possible, but no simpler. A truly happy person is one who can enjoy the scenery on a detour.
All sunshine makes a desert.
The problem is not the problem. The problem is one's attitude about the problem. Credentials on the wall do not make you a decent human being. Expecting people to be nice to you, just because you are nice to them is like expecting the bull not to charge because you are a vegetarian. Tis better to be silent and be thought a fool, than to speak out and remove all doubt.
