Did you guys know that there was even such a day? I love the holidays! :mrgreen: If I were going to follow a specific life philosophy, his would be among the top contenders. I like the serious stuff, but you guys feel free to post the funny ones too. There's wisdom in just about any line of thought. 
Life is really simple, but we insist on making it complicated.
When it is obvious that the goals cannot be reached, don't adjust the goals, adjust the action steps.
It is easy to hate and it is difficult to love. This is how the whole scheme of things works. All good things are difficult to achieve; and bad things are very easy to get.
I hear and I forget. I see and I remember. I do and I understand.
The superior man thinks always of virtue; the common man thinks of comfort.
The firm, the enduring, the simple, and the modest are near to virtue.
To see what is right and not to do it is want of courage, or of principle.
