QotD

If you hate a person, you hate something in him that is part of yourself. What isn't part of ourselves doesn't disturb us.
- Hermann Hesse

Not sure who this Hesse guy is, but I've long believed that line.

This discussion makes me think you may enjoy The Prophet by Kahlil Gibran. It's essentially a book of quotes like the Hesse one. Now I'm thinking about Far Eastern literature because of the whole Buddha connection. So, quote from Krishmamurti- "It is no measure of health to be well adjusted in a profoundly sick society." I like that one.
You should call me.
And tell me more about this Ashley girl.

"And tell me more about this Ashley girl."

Well, for starters, it seems her name is actually 'Kira.' There's a story there, I'll have to tell you.

And I actually was going to call you and gush, because I we feeling happy, and being happy made me think of you. Yeah, I know, weird.

I will call you before Thanksgiving. I vow it.
