truly great...

...all it takes is a skilled flatterer to make a person feel important, or a sharp critic to make a person shrink. But it takes someone of rare quality to make a person feel both big and small at the same time, often by his presence alone.

The truly great man is a man of truth.

a good compliment truly feels great. thanx. as far as the ratio of posting frequency to time with sforim, i beg to refer to the end of the blog's subtitle.

forget the last bit of the subtitle; so far you've been on a roll. anything you learn can and will be applied to your lovely and warm posts...
