I'm suppose to the QOTD but I'm in the ER at the hospital from the ice I just slipped on. I missed the wet area, which was black ice. Can someone do the QOTD for me today?

Anais Nin
This reminds me of "Things are not as they seem." Humans can see things as they are or see them as humans perceive them to be. Or, completely fool themselves.

"I've found that the way a person feels about cats---and the way they feel about him or her in return---is usually an excellent gauge by which we measure a person's character."
