I HOPE YOU UNDERSTAND THIS


"You always admire what you really don't understand."

Eleanor Roosevelt (1884-1962) American columnist/lecturer/humanitarian.

I am leery of quotes such as this which use absolutes ("always").

Very little in life is "always" or "never", nor is "everyone" or "no one" always or never 100% for or against something.

Contrary to what extremist of all sorts would have you believe we live life in the middle.

That said the core of Ms. Roosevelt's statement is true.
