The best way to cheer yourself up is to try to cheer somebody else up. - Mark Twain
It is not the critic who counts, not the man who points out how the strong man stumbled, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better.

--Robert Southey
If you want to see what children can do, you must stop giving them things.
