Do you have a motto in life?

    My personal motto of the moment is:

    *Nothing is ever quite what it seems.

    Oddly enought (I just looked it up) my family motto is either:

    *Esto quod esse videris./Men should be what they seem.
    or *Deum Cole regum serva./Worship God, obey the king.

    it isn't a motto but I really like Seneca's observation:

    Non Magnum Ingenium Sine Qua Fuit Dementia

    (might have gotten some of that latin wrong)

    which translates into: "There is no great genius without some touch of madness"

    I do try to live by two precepts which are Balance and Moderation in all things....

    and I think that the wisest course and the best course is usually the one which is Kind....

    People who know me say I am a very kind person.

    (People on JWD say I am an asshole )
