Day 15, file under Four of my Favorites

You may not be responsible for being down, but you must be
responsible for getting up.
--Jesse Jackson

Perhaps no person can be a poet, or can even enjoy poetry,
without a certain unsoundness of mind.
--Thomas Babington Macauley (1800-1859) English politician

Somehow we must learn not only to meet sorrow with courage,
which is comparatively easy, but with serenity, which is
more difficult, being not a single act but a way of living.
--Daisy Newman (1904-1990) Quaker writer

If you can't be a good example -- then you'll just have to be a
horrible warning.
-Catherine-
