A tough lesson in life that one has to learn is that not everybody wishes you well.
That is ever the way. Tis all jealousy to the bride and good wishes to the corpse.

If a dog doesn't put you first where are you both? In what relation? A dog needs God. It lives by your glances your wishes. It even shares your humor. This happens about the fifth year. If it doesn't happen you are only keeping an animal.
The trouble with most people is that they think with their hopes or fears or wishes rather than with their minds.
I have a long-standing history of respecting artists' wishes.
Most of the provisions designed to fix what ails our health system don't kick in until 2014 which one wishes administration officials had noticed is two years after he has to win an election.
