Anybody could have done it, but Nobody did it. Somebody got angry because it was Everybodyโs job. Everybody thought Anybody would do it, but Nobody realized that Everybody wouldnโt do it. It ended up that Everybody blamed Somebody when Nobody did what Anybody could have done.

Charles R. SwindollCultivate your own capabilities, your own style. Appreciate the members of your family for who they are, even though their outlook or style may be miles different from yours. Rabbits don't fly. Eagles don't swim. Ducks look funny trying to climb. Squirrels don't have feathers. Stop comparing. There's plenty of room in the forest.
