No idea where it came from; my mom used to say it all the time & now I do
Great quote. It may not strike you as original but it’s probably the most straightforward way I’ve seen this idea put.

Hilary McHone, photographer and projecteer, is co-winner of the People’s Choice Award. Held on the site, Artists Wanted, Hilary competed with hundreds of self portrait photographers.
It’s more than just a feel good prize. Hilary was told to keep it secret to till this week started but she now shares with us what she won.
As one recipient of the People’s Choice, I will receive a $1000 grant (very useful for my History with Hilary project!!), a publicity push, AND a show!! I will give you details on the show when I have them – it will be in NYC! I love excuses to go back there now that I’m living on the west coast!
Taggart, my only brother, has been diagnosed with ALS. His physical strength and coordination is already going downhill. He’s already struggling to get in and out of bed and couches and chairs. It is his and his wife’s desire to be able to afford a lifting recliner.
Your donations, even a dollar here and there, will be an immediate help in raising money for this and other items he’ll need in the future. I’m coordinating this with a fundraiser being held by his church.
Taggart is currently receiving no income from either Social Security or the VA. They’ve yet to accept his status as fully disabled. His wife is their sole support.
