    I can't remember the author (but I can picture his cartoon work), but I do love this one:

    When you are advocating, remember this:

    ----- The pessimist sees difficulty in every -----
    - opportunity. The optimist sees the opportunity -
    --- in every difficulty. --- Winston Churchill ---
