Toni, from A Daily Dose of Toni has this great weekly ritual of posting Favorite Quotes – the quotes that people come up with are very inspiring, so if you haven’t had a chance to check out Quotable Sunday, now’s your chance! πŸ˜‰ This week I have chosen quotes about ‘Dealing with People’. They tie in nicely with the next Segment of my Journey that I will be posting later today… πŸ˜‰

“Arguing with a fool proves there are two.” Doris M. Smith

“It is always good to know, if only in passing, charming human beings. It refreshes one like flowers and woods and clear brooks.” George Eliot

“Every man is a volume if you know how to read him.” William Ellery Channing

“If evil be said of thee, and if it be true, correct thyself; if it be a lie, laugh at it.” Epictetus

“A good word is an easy obligation; but not to speak ill requires only our silence; which costs us nothing.” John Tillotson

“It requires less character to discover the faults of others than is does to tolerate them.” J. Petit Senn

“Be courteous to all, but intimate with few; and let those be well-tried before you give them your confidence.” George Washington
