I certainly share this particular dilemma! I suspect we will be off topic, if not outside the Forum Rules to pursue it here, but I will PM you Smile
Yes. Thank you for noting. I edited my post to back away from the line.

Quote:One germane Latin quote, very much on topic:
Vix ulla tam iniqua pax, quin bello vel aequissimo sit potior – "Scarcely is there any peace so unjust that it is not better than even the fairest war" (Erasmus)

and a motto:
fortiter in re, suaviter in modo
boldly in deed, gently in manner
Excellent! Many thanks. Big Grin
