Kindness is not without its rocks ahead. People are apt to put it down to an easy temper and seldom recognize it as the secret striving of a generous nature; whilst, on the other hand, the ill-natured get credit for all the evil they refrain from.

-Honore De Balzac, novelist (1799-1850)

I like this quote. Happens alot in my household. My brother has a bad tempter and gets credit when he doesnt blow his top, but I who almost never "blow-up", never get credit. However when I am a teensy but grouchy, they all wanna know why im so b*tchy. Go figure.
