After a long discussion with ryanfirewitch about money and logistics and general freaking out about "what will people think?" (sorry, beloved!)

Money fear not, nor laughter of the folk folly, nor any other

What people would think about what?

How I manage money/how responsible I am. Nothing scandalous. ;)

I wouldn't be a raccoon if I weren't a bit curious, as well, it's safer if I don't reach my own conclusions about stuff. :)

Sorry about that! I've actually been trying to be clearer. Maybe. :) At any rate, the first quote struck me because I've been worried about managing my money lately (and by lately I mean the entire past year) - but I'm getting better at it. The "laughter of the folk folly" bit reminded me of my worrying about what people would think - especially as I'm about to join a new group (the O.T.O) and stuff like that makes me nervous.

The Eowyn quote reminded me of my current situation. I'm living on my own and I have to remind myself reasonably often that I'm free - or at least as free as people get.

Good quote. I sent it on to a friend in great need of some encouragement just now.
