Life appears to me too short to be spent in nursing animosity or in registering wrongs. We are, and must be, one and all, burdened with faults in this world; but the time will come when, I trust, we shall put them off in putting off our corruptible bodies; when debasement and sin will fall off from us and only the spark will remain...
....With this creed, revenge never worries my heart, degradation never too deeply disgusts me, injustice never crushes me too low. I live in calm, looking to the end.
(Helen Burns in Charlotte Bronte's
Jane Eyre)

And once again you are most welcome!
It's such a good creed to live by, isn't it?
