Be not angry...
Be not angry that you cannot make others as you wish them to be, since you cannot make yourself as you wish to be. ~Thomas à Kempis, Imitation of Christ, c.1420
That's a really good quote. The lady doesn't look happy to get the gist of it either. It's so much easier to find the faults in others rather than ourselves.

And yet, "making ourselves" is our main project. :-)
