Quote We Could All Consider

"How we disagree is a real measure of who we are."

It's okay to disagree but not to be disagreeable.

It's off my ultrarunning list- I don't know who said it.

Wait- Google is my friend.

Quentin LaMar Cook (born September 8, 1940) is a member of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles in The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS Church). Currently, he is the thirteenth most senior apostle in the ranks of the Church.
 
I think it is good for people to disagree without deliberately trying to hurt each other.

But as to being disagreeable- I have seen some couples, such as my first exes late parents (Italian), argue loudly and carry on dramatically, but they loved each other and were married to each other for life.

Maybe it isn't the style of disagreement, but the basic respect and affection that is important?
 
Well, I was thinking more in terms of cs.com and not married couples, although maybe that's an appropriate analogy, too!
 
Nice one Nanci - a good find.

Where I do so, I shall aim to disagree without being disagreeable.

We've already discussed my limited exposure to Mormons. Although...I'm remembering a radiologist now. He did not like it when I asked him if he would be getting his own planet...
 
I want my own planet.... Where do I sign up... I can guarantee it will be full of reptile people... with mammals as pets... Just to see what happens....

Just kidding.
I like where I am, the responsibility of my own planet would be a little too much.
 
Oh that's just great! When I had Mormons trying to convert me they didn't say I'd get a planet! I was horrified at giving up coffee forever
 
Well in that case I can be thankful for my caffiene addiction! The missionaries were cute though.
 
J9 if you like them they will keep coming back like the energizer bunny.


Actually, regardless of who said it, the quote is good. Thank you Nanci

You have to give up coffee to be Mormon?? Hmmm... Coffee...or...planet? Coffee...or...planet...??

Well...a planet won't do me much good if I'm walking around in a caffein-depraved fog, so...guess I'll settle for coffee. And lots of it, please!

Jeez Wade, if I had to list '20 people from cs.com' I'd want on my planet, Bitsy woud be right up there near the top......

And you know I love Bitsy like a sister. I live in Utah, I'm not a Mormon so I can't get a planet but as the neighbor of a Mormon I am entitled to a continent. I would hope Bitsy would join me.
 
I think they are anti hot drinks, which happens to include coffee and tea. I haven't been to a Mormon church in about 12 years, so don't quote me on that.

Edit: Actually my family dragged me to church around Xmas 5 years ago. Still, don't quote me...
