Why is it that nobody understands me and everybody likes me

Albert Einstein

I believe in the forgiveness of sin and the redemption of ignorance.

Adlai Stevenson, "Time", retort

Cruel people are busy all the time, as if to find justification for the cruelty of their dealings.

Leo Tolstoy

Julia Roberts
