Now and then...

"Happy families are all alike; every unhappy family is unhappy in its own way."---Tolstoy, Anna Karenina

"A man is like a fraction whose numerator is what he is and whose denominator is what he thinks of himself. The larger the denominator, the smaller the fraction"---Tolstoy

"Everyone thinks of changing the world, but no one thinks of changing himself."---Tolstoy

I like Tolstoy's quotes.  He is amazing in summing up lots of statements into one simple, insightful sentence.  I love quotes that are like that, they convey thoughts and ideas that I cannot arrange into elegant, coherent sentences myself.
