Everyday life is a conspiracy of food, clothing, shelter and health care to make you like everyone else.

I wonder sometimes if anyone has ever found true happiness in a comparison.
You cannot teach humility. You can foster a self-esteem that displays itself as humility.
Most of what children learn from their parents does not come from the spoken word.
