&quot;I love people who make me laugh. I honestly think it&#039;s the thing I like most, to laugh. It cures a multitude of ills. It&#039;s probably the most important thing in a person.&quot;<br /> &mdash; Audrey Hepburn &lt;------ I couldn&#039;t have said it better myself.

People are often unreasonable, irrational, and self-centered. Forgive them anyway. <br /> If you are kind, people may accuse you of selfish, ulterior motives. Be kind anyway.<br /> ...If you are successful, you will win some unfaithful friends and some genuine enemies. Succeed anyway.<br /> If you are honest and sincere people may deceive you. Be honest and sincere anyway.<br /> What you spend years creating, others could destroy overnight. Create anyway.<br /> If you find serenity and happiness, some may be jealous. Be happy anyway.<br /> The good you do today, will often be forgotten. Do good anyway.<br /> Give the best you have, and it will never be enough. Give your best anyway.<br /> In the final analysis, it is between you and truth. It was never between you and them anyway.<br /> ~Mother Teresa

&ldquo;If I had a world of my own, everything would be nonsense. Nothing would be what it is, because everything would be what it isn&#039;t. And contrary wise, what is, it wouldn&#039;t be. And what it wouldn&#039;t be, it would. You see?&rdquo; - Mad Hatter
