Vive la difference!

Can't we just be different without one of us having to be better?

Whomever I enhance enhances me; whomever I diminish diminishes me.

Friends don't flatter or humor me; friends encourage and uplift me.

If you know me and reject me, that's my loss; if you don't know me and reject me, that's your loss.
