Life is but short; no time can be afforded but for the indulgence of real sorrow, or contests upon questions seriously momentous. Let us not throw away any of our day upon useless resentment, or contend who shall hold out longest in stubborn malignity. It is best not to be angry; and best, in the next place to be quickly reconciled. - Samuel Johnson
