    Man, you get a ton of vacation time!
    Excellence is an art won by training and habituation. We do not act rightly because we have virtue or excellence, but rather we have those because we have acted rightly. We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act but a habit.
    - -- Aristotle

    Believe nothing on the faith of traditions, even though they have been held in honor for many generations and in diverse places. Do not believe a thing because many people speak of it. Do not believe on the faith of the sages of the past. Do not believe what you yourself have imagined, persuading yourself that a God inspires you. Believe nothing on the sole authority of your masters and priests. After examination, believe what you yourself have tested and found to be reasonable, and conform your conduct thereto.
    - -- The Buddha

    It is the mark of an educated mind to be able to entertain a thought without accepting it.

    I get about a month and a half each year. After a fricking decade at the same company. Of course, I'll be getting none soon when I buy the Pizza joint.

    Nah, in France they'd make him work on Christmas just to prove they weren't giving that day any precedence over any other day. Can't have you wearing crosses around your neck or taking Christmas off!
