When you put down the good things you ought to have done, and leave out the bad ones you did do — well, that’s Memoirs.
Will Rogers (1879-1935) American humorist
Essay (1932-03-12), “Letters of a Self-Made Diplomat to Senator Borah,” Saturday Evening PostSourcing, notes: wist.info/rogers-will/76180/

TARTUFFE: Some joys, it’s true, are wrong in Heaven’s eyes;
Yet Heaven is not averse to compromise;
There is a science, lately formulated.
Whereby one’s conscience may be liberated,
And any wrongful act you care to mention
May be redeemed by purity of intention.
I’ll teach you. Madam, the secrets of that science;
Meanwhile, just place on me your full reliance.
Assuage my keen desires, and feel no dread:
The sin, if any, shall be on my head.
[Le ciel défend, de vrai, certains contentements;
Mais on trouve avec lui des accommodements.
Selon divers besoins, il est une science
D’étendre les liens de notre conscience,
Et de rectifier le mal de l’action
Avec la pureté de notre intention.
De ces secrets, madame, on saura vous instruire ;
Vous n’avez seulement qu’à vous laisser conduire.
Contentez mon désir, et n’ayez point d’effroi ;
Je vous réponds de tout, et prends le mal sur moi.]
Molière (1622-1673) French playwright, actor [stage name for Jean-Baptiste Poquelin]
Tartuffe, Act 4, sc. 5 (1664) [tr. Wilbur (1963)]Sourcing, notes, alternate translations: wist.info/moliere/65413/

I just saw a picture of a smiling Mr. Rogers behind a "Sensitive Content" warning, and I'm officially calling it. 11:15am central time, Friday the 13th, 2023, this feature's usefulness is dead from overuse. When all content is sensitive, none of it is.

The single biggest #division in the human world seems to be between people who, at all costs and despite any evidence otherwise, need an #Infallible #leader, be it #Trump, #ElonMusk, #God / #Jesus or #GretaThunberg and those who want their leadership to be #human with flaws but general #GoodIntentions, who must be held to account and are often replaced or added to.
It seems to be an insurmountable difference.
