Today’s STATUS QUOtes

 

“Happiness is the sum of all the misfortunes we don’t have.” — Marcel Achard

“If we do not learn to sacrifice small differences of opinion, we can never act together. Every man cannot have his way in all things. If his own opinion prevails at some times, he should acquiesce on seeing that of others preponderate at others. Without this mutual disposition we are disjointed individuals, but not a society.” — Thomas Jefferson

“But because I do it with a small ship, I am called a pirate, whilst you, who do it with a great fleet, you are an emperor.” — Saint Augustine

“If you go to heaven without being naturally qualified for it, you will not enjoy it there.” – — George Bernard Shaw
