The most potent weapon in the hands of the oppressor is the mind of the oppressed.

something I saw on a card while waiting to check out at the Strand:
It's not who you are that holds you back — it's what you think you aren't.
Those are similar, right? I've been trying to reframe when I have negative thoughts or feel overwhelmed: I'm not too decrepit to do karate, I'm still doing it. That kind of thing.
My cat didn't know it's Daylight Savings Time & so instead of waking me up at 4:30 like he does every frigging day, he let me sleep in till 5:30. I am so not going to tell him to change his clock. That was a spa hour, oh yeah!
