NOBODY WILL REMEMBER:
Your salary, your fancy title, how 'busy' you were, how stressed you were, or how many hours you worked.
PEOPLE WILL REMEMBER:
The time you spent with them, how you made them feel, if you kept your promises, and if you were there for them.

Deus vult’ began as a rallying cry for the Crusades. More recently, it’s been adopted by the far right. And we’re not even supposed to wonder/ask why it’s tattooed on the arm of the next defense secretary?

Gowdy: I talk to senators all the time… The head count is not even 50/50 on one of them. One of them can't even get half the Republican senators. But I will let you guess from our earlier discussion who that might be.
