==== “ Notre grande erreur est d'essayer d'obtenir de chacun en particulier les vertus qu'il n'a pas, et de négliger de cultiver celles qu'il possède. Our great mistake is trying to get people to focus on virtues they don't possess and neglecting to cultivate those they do.” //Marguerite Yourcenar (1903-1987), Belgian-born French novelist.//====
