A quotation from Abraham Lincoln

If both factions, or neither, shall abuse you, you will probably be about right. Beware of being assailed by one and praised by the other.

Abraham Lincoln (1809-1865) American lawyer, politician, US President (1861-65)
Letter (1863-05-27) to Gen. John M. Schofield

Musical Interlude: A half-century ago, my hometown Tastee Freez had a jukebox, and it was a popular place to stop for a cone and to chat with friends. I remember this song playing often there; I don't recall any others, and it's about the only place I remember hearing this....but apparently it was a bit of a hit.

"Chirpy Chirpy Cheep Cheep," performed by Middle of the Road.

A quotation from Moliere

CLÉANTE: Most men are strangely made; they always stray
   Out of the natural and proper way;
   Rejecting reason’s bounds as limitations,
   They range about amid their aberrations;
   Even the noblest things they often mar
   By forcing them and pushing them too far.
 
[Les hommes, la plupart, sont étrangement faits;
Dans la juste nature on ne les voit jamais:
La raison a pour eux des bornes trop petites,
En chaque caractère ils passent ses limites;
Et la plus noble chose, ils la gâtent souvent,
Pour la vouloir outrer et pousser trop avant.]

Molière (1622-1673) French playwright, actor [stage name for Jean-Baptiste Poquelin]
Tartuffe, or the Hypocrite [Le Tartuffe, ou L’Imposteur], Act 1, sc. 6 (1669) [tr. Frame (1967)]

Ordinary Love offers a quiet, competent take on marriage and illness — but don’t expect surprises. Liam Neeson and Lesley Manville carry a story that plays it safe at every turn. The cinematic definition of "just fine."

I am sure, that one of these photos just need to be a frontcover of a cool rock album. About the same theme. City life, or someway connected with theme of a working man. It is very cool! Someone with a delicious taste pack his clothers at the tree.

Fun with depth of field in Halide. If you have an iPhone I can definitely recommend this app, it adds lots of control above the default Apple camera. Also, it allows you to access Raw files without any of Apple’s post-processing performed on the image. The downside is of course large files - but If you value fidelity over averaging, it’s a great tool. #shotonhalide #middleoftheroad #betweenthelines
