Whenyou plant lettuce, if it does not grow well, you don't blame the lettuce. Youlook for reasons it is not doing well. It may need fertilizer, or more water,or less sun. You never blame the lettuce. Yet if we have problems with ourfriends or our family,

They mayforget what you said, but they will never forget how you made them feel.

Marriagemeans expectations and expectations mean conflict.

The roots of education are bitter, but the fruit is sweet.

Reasonand emotion are not antagonists. What seems like a struggle between twoopposing ideas or values, one of which, automatic and unconscious, manifestsitself in the form of a feeling.

Somepeople reach the top of the ladder only to find it is leaning against thewrong wall.

All our rightousnesses are like filthy rags

It is in our idleness, in our dreams, that submerged truth sometimes comes to top.

Long-rangeplanning works best in the short term.

Fate chooses our relatives, We choose our friends.

Do not judge, and you will never be mistaken

Onehour of thoughtful solitude may nerve the heart for days of conflict girdingup its armor to meet the most insidious foe.
