I have learned silence from the talkative, toleration from the intolerant, and
kindness from the unkind; yet, strange, I am ungrateful to these teachers.
Khalil Gibran
I understand, of course, that many people find smoking objectionable. That is their right. I would, I assure you, be the very last to criticize the
annoyed. I myself find many - even most - things objectionable. Being offended is the natural consequence of leaving one's home. I do not like aftershave
lotion, adults who roller-skate, children who speak French, or anyone who is unduly tan. I do not, however, go around enacting legislation and putting up
signs. In private I avoid such people; in public they have the run of the place. I stay at home as much as possible, and so should they. When it is necessary,
however, to go out of the house, they must be prepared, as I am, to deal with the unpleasant personal habits of others. That is what public
means.
Fran Lebowitz
The common idea that success spoils people by making them vain, egotistic and self-complacent is erroneous; on
the contrary it makes them, for the most part, humble, tolerant and kind. Failure makes people bitter and cruel.
W. Somerset Maugham
If you can't stand the heat, get out of the kitchen.
Harry S. Truman
The mark of a moderate man is freedom from his own ideas. Tolerant like the sky, all-pervading like sunlight, firm like a
mountain, supple like a tree in the wind, he has no destination in view and makes use of anything life happens to bring his way.
Lao Tzu
Last on Earth
