“The reason for forgiving your enemies is not forÂ theirÂ benefit but forÂ your ownÂ benefit. Holding grudges against other people doesnâ€™t hurt them; doesnâ€™t even bother them much - in fact, even pleases them if they are still mad at you. It is not in your enlightened self-interest to hold grudges, regardless of whether it bothers the person you hate or not.”

So I got it. And then my husband [Paul Scheer] got it. We were both fighting it because he had planned this whole day for me, and we were both pretending it wasn't happening. We were literally driving ourselves to a massage and facial that he had planned and at one point, I was like, "I can't drive anymore. I need to get in the passenger's seat."”
