    “The praise of ancient authors proceeds not from the reverence of the dead, but from the competition and mutual envy of the living.”
    —Thomas Hobbes (1588–1679)

    “I am thankful for small mercies. I compared notes with one of my friends who expects everything of the universe, and is disappointed when anything is less than best, and I found that I begin at the other extreme, expecting nothing, and am always full of thanks for moderate goods.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
