Quote du jour/Henry Ward Beecher
Every man should be born again on the first day of January. Start with a fresh page. Take up one hole more in the buckle if necessary, or let down one, according to circumstances; but on the first day of January let every man gird himself once more, with his face to the front, and take no interest in the things that were and are past.

In the days this was written, it was a good thing to have some weight. So different from now when all you hear about is how one is supposed to lose, lose, lose!
