Good thread. 2 that I have always remembered:
“The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing.”
― Edmund Burke
That one haunts me at those times when I wonder if I should be doing something differently.
and one slightly less serious:
"It is the vanity of women to spend too long in front of the mirror. It is the vanity of men not to bother". Heard that on the radio once and thought it was brilliant but I have no idea who said it.
