Don't know exactly why, but makes me think of...

"Let those who are in favour with their stars
Of public honour and proud titles boast,
Whilst I, whom fortune of such triumph bars,
Unlook'd for joy in that I honour most.
Great princes' favourites their fair leaves spread
But as the marigold at the sun's eye,
And in themselves their pride lies buried,
For at a frown they in their glory die.
The painful warrior famoused for fight,
After a thousand victories once foil'd,
Is from the book of honour razed quite,
And all the rest forgot for which he toil'd:
Then happy I, that love and am beloved
Where I may not remove nor be removed."

— Shakespeare, Sonnet XXV

Michal,

I'm responding late, hoping I could come up with a favorite. But I can't decide between the two mentioned by Croc and Frank and the one of the three women in conversation. Those three are simply terrific.
