You will notice from my multiple posts in this thread, that I collect quotes the way other people collect coins, stamps, or bottle caps. Here is another favorite of mine:

"People who respect the law and love sausage should never watch either being made." Attributed to various individuals, including Mark Twain and Otto Von Bismark.

The thing is that making the sausage is when the”rubber meets the road” and isn’t that what life is about?

Honestly isn’t the dirty work all part of meeting out the bullshit?

Here is another favorite of mine:
You are a child of the universe, no less than the trees and the stars, you have a right to be here. Max Ehrmann, "Desiderata" (1920).

I may be boring people with my frequent posts here, but another favorite quote of mine is this, by 20th Century American theologian Reinhold Niebuhr:

"God, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change,
courage to change the things I can,
and wisdom to know the difference."

Because it is Independence Day:

"We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights, that among these are life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness." -Thomas Jefferson
