If you want OTHERS to be happy, practice compassion.  If YOU wish to be happy… practice compassion.

“Class never runs scared. It is sure-footed and confident, and it can handle whatever comes along. Class has a sense of humor. It knows that a good laugh is the best lubricant for oiling the machinery of human relations. Class never makes excuses. It takes its lumps and learns from mistakes…Class is comfortable in its own skin. It never puts on airs. Class never tries to build itself up by tearing others down. If you have class, you've got it made. ”

I love that one Leah!

I have two.  Each related to the other…

When the character of a man is not clear to you, look at his friends.

~Japanese Proverb

Also, something I told my niece, which her grandmother always told me.

If you want to see how a man will treat you after the first blush of romance wears off, pay attention to how he treats his own mother, and to how his father treats his wife.

~Ma Laugh  (I should have listened to her!)

There's a third one about character, something about noticing how people treat the 'lower classes', servants and such.  Obviously from a time when those sorts of terms were used, I'll have to look for that one.  It's another good one.

"I didn't feel that a bit" is a huge thank you to a phlebotomist, especially if the needle is still in their arm.  Wink

My budget plan is NOT getting a cart when I go to the store.
