Speak your truth quietly and clearly; and listen to others, even the full and the ignorant; they too have their stories. Avoid loud and aggressive persons; they are vexations to the spirit. If you compare yourself to others, you may become vain or bitter, for always there will be greater and lesser persons than yourself….Beyond a wholesome discipline, be gentle with yourself. You are a child of the universe no less than the trees and the stars, you have a right to be here. From Desiderata by Max Ehrmann 1927 #thetimesofbillcunningham #billcunningham #markbozek
