Your most unhappy customers are your greatest source of learning.
~ Bill Gates
Life would be a lot easier if we didn't get upset about about other people's dumb thoughts and bad feelings and we instead consider how poorly those thoughts and feelings are processed. Most people aren't smart thinkers.

A sincere giver of a gift expects nothing in return. Even a meal is offered without anticipation of a token of appreciation for the hostess as etiquette suggests.

1. The fool understands the phrase “something than which nothing greater can be thought.”
2. Hence, “something than which nothing greater can be thought” exists at least in the fool’s mind.
3. It is greater to exist in reality than to exist in the mind alone.
4. So if “that than which nothing greater can be thought” existed only in the fool’s mind, it would be possible to think of something greater (the same thing existing in reality).
5. But this would be a contradiction, since it is impossible to think of something greater than “that than which nothing greater can be thought.”
6. Hence “something than which nothing greater can be thought” must exist both in the fool’s mind and in reality. God exists!
~ St. Anselm of Canterbury

The liberals love the poor, the meek and the oppressed in theory. It's the actual poor, meek and oppressed they have a problem with.
