I love that quote. - Lin Yutang's, that is. I really do. And it's curious to see how and why it's used by different people across the web in different contexts for different reasons and on such different sites. It's something I'm researching ... and well, I stumbled across your site. Just wanted to say hi and thanks for the posts.
