Be who you are and say what you feel because those who mind don’t matter and those who matter don’t mind. — Bernard Baruch

FAST — remember, don’t eat meat today.

PRAY for the courage to be proud of your Catholic identity.

GIVE time to your local church — sign up to volunteer for an activity during Lent.



After Lent, tune in to BustedHalo.com every day for our Daily Jolts and MicroChallenges!

    Bianca, that’s what most people think, but like a surprising number of very popular quotes, it seems to be misattributed. It’s not in any of Theodor Geisel’s works, and
    this attribution to Bernard Baruch predates it:

    Often quoted response to Igor Cassini, a popular society columnist for the New York Journal American, when asked how he handled the seating arrangements for all those who attended his dinner parties, as quoted in Shake Well Before Using: A New Collection of Impressions and Anecdotes Mostly Humorous (1948) by Bennett Cerf, p. 249

    Thanks for paying attention! :-)

    I believe that’s a Dr. Seuss’ quote!

    When I was a teenager, I lived by “Be more concerned with what God thinks of you than with what others think of you.” (Maybe that’s why I ended up being a nun.)

    This quote goes well with “What others think about you is none of your business, it is their business.”
