Every nation has a right to govern itself internally under what forms it pleases, and to change these forms at its own will.
Thomas JeffersonWhen we see ourselves in a situation which must be endured and gone through, it is best to make up our minds to it, meet it with firmness, and accommodate everything to it in the best way practicable. This lessens the evil; while fretting and fuming only serves to increase your own torments.
