“Always forgive your enemies; nothing annoys them so much.”
Oscar Wilde

The good you do today will be forgotten tomorrow.
Do good anyway.

Honesty and frankness make you vulnerable.

William Shakespeare
“Love all, trust a few,
Do wrong to none: be able for thine enemy
Rather in power than use; and keep thy friend
Under thy own life's key: be check'd for silence,
But never tax'd for speech.”
William Shakespeare, All's Well That Ends Well
