Get your facts first, and then you can distort them as much as you please. Grief can take care of itself, but to get the full value of a joy you must have somebody to divide it with. Everybody talks about the weather, but nobody does anything about it. It is best to read the weather forecasts before we pray for rain. Climate is what we expect, weather is what we get.
Nothing so needs reforming as other people's habits.
Be careless in your dress if you must, but keep a tidy soul. Loyalty to petrified opinion never yet broke a chain or freed a human soul. The best way to chear yourself up is to try to cheer somebody else up. When you cannot get a compliment any other way, pay yourself one. The only way to keep your health is to eat what you don't want, drink what you don't like, and do what you'd rather not.
