[Quote No.17158] Need Area: Friends > General
"When we hate our enemies, we are giving them power over us: power over our sleep, our appetites, our blood pressure, our health, and our happiness. Our enemies would dance with joy if only they knew how they were worrying us, lacerating us, and getting even with us! Our hate is not hurting them at all, but our hate is turning our own days and nights into a Hellish turmoil." - Dale Carnegie
(1888 - 1955) American writer and speaker, who wrote 'How To Win Friends and Influence People'

[Quote No.17223] Need Area: Friends > General
"[Poem:]
There are two kinds of people on earth today,
Just two kinds of people no more I say.
Not the good and the bad, for 'tis well understood,
The good are half bad and the bad are half good.
Not the happy or sad, for in the swift - flying years,
Bring each man his laughter and each man his tears.
Not the rich or the poor, for to count a man's wealth,
You must know the state of his conscience and health.
Not the humble and proud, for in life's busy span,
Who puts on vain airs is not counted a man.
No! the two kinds of people on earth that I mean,
Are the people who lift and the people who lean.
Wherever you go you will find the world's masses,
Are ever divided in just these two classes.
And, strangely enough, you will find, too, I mean,
There is only one lifter to twenty who lean.
In which class are you? Are you easing the load,
Of the overtaxed lifters who toiled down the road?
Or are you a leaner who lets others bear,
Your portion of worry and labor and care?
" - Ella Wheeler Wilcox

[Quote No.17267] Need Area: Friends > General
"A young lad knocked on the door of a woman's house and asked her if she would like to buy some berries he had just picked.
'Yes,' she said, 'I'll take your pail in the kitchen and measure out two quarts.'
The boy stood outside and played with his dog. 'Why don't you come in and see that I measure your berries right?' inquired the woman. 'How do you know that I may not cheat you?'
'I'm not afraid,' replied the boy, 'for you will get the worst of it.'
'Get the worst of it,' replied the woman, 'What do you mean by that?'
'Why, Ma'am,' said the boy. 'I would only lose the berries; you would make yourself a thief'.
{Honesty allows you to respect yourself and be respected by others. Why throw that away for anything? The only people who would then associate with you would be those worse than you!]" - Purnell Bailey
