Life is good

I found these quotes today, and they both made me smile.

"Too often we underestimate the power of a touch, a smile, a kind word, a listening ear, an honest compliment, or the smallest act of caring, all of which have the potential to turn a life around."- Leo Buscaglia

"Tolerance implies no lack of commitment to one's own beliefs. Rather it condemns the oppression or persecution of others." - John F. Kennedy

I like these, but in a fit of snark, I thought about the second one, "Yeah, but what if one's own beliefs involve the 'oppression or persecution of others'?"

I'm thinking that maybe I'm a sick puppy.

But yeah, that first one is most definitely true. (I've kind of been on both sides of that one.)
