My favorite quote is "Life is too
short to be little," written by Disraeli.
Often we allow ourselves to be upset by small things we should despise and
forget.
We lose many irreplaceable hours brooding over grievances that, in a year’s
time,
will be forgotten by us and by everybody. No, let us devote our life to
worthwhile
actions and feelings, to great thoughts, real affections and enduring
undertakings.
Andre Maurois
