I have come to believe that the whole world is an enigma, a harmless enigma that is made terrible by our own mad attempt to interpret it as though it had an underlying truth.

Thirty was so strange for me. I've really had to come to terms with the fact that I am now a walking and talking adult.

My dad tried to get across to me in grade school that I should never try to be better than someone else. Now if you just stop there, it is kind of crazy advice. But he didn't stop there. He said to learn from others and never cease trying to be the best that you can be. That is under your control: the other isn't. So don't worry about being better, worry about being the best you can be. Part of being your best is accepting your own mistakes and learning from them. But do not be afraid to fail.
~ John Wooden 1910 - 2010

If you have trouble forgiving someone, it is at least partly because deep in your heart you are thinking, “I would never do anything like THAT.” As long as you feel superior to someone, feel like you are a much better kind of person, you will find it very hard if not impossible to forgive.

When a man is getting better he understands more and more clearly the evil that is still left in him. When a man is getting worse, he understands his own badness less and less. A moderately bad man knows he is not very good: a thoroughly bad man thinks he is alright.
