"For the faithful, the patient, the hermetically pure, all the important things in this world-not life and death, perhaps, which are merely words, but the important things-work out rather beautifully." - J.D. Salinger
"What do you want now? You are pooping me out of house and home!"- Abbey Lindholm
"We all die. The goal isn't to live forever, the goal is to create something that will.â
-Chuck Palahniuk
"After all, compassion without common sense may feel good but it doesn't achieve anything. If you need proof then go out and give $1,000 to every homeless person who asks you for change. I bet your heart would be full, but your wallet would soon be empty. And all those people would probably still be homeless."
Glenn Beck
After all, memory is kind of an obligation, perhaps the last duty owed anyone.
-The Secret of Lost Things
"I'd rather have three minutes of wonderful than a lifetime of ordinary." -Steel Magnolias
"Religion has convinced people that thereâs an invisible manâ¦living in the sky, who watches everything you do every minute of every day. And the invisible man has a list of ten specific things he doesnât want you to do. And if you do any of these things, he will send you to a special place, of burning and fire and smoke and torture and anguish for you to live forever, and suffer and burn and scream until the end of time. But he loves you. He loves you and he needs money." -George Carlin
Face It. Nobody owes you a living, what you achieve or fail to achieve in your lifetime is directly related to what you do or fail to do. No one chooses his parents or childhood but you can choose your own direction. Everyone has problems and obstacles to overcome, but that too is relative to each individual. Excuses are for losers: those who take responsibility for their actions are the real winners in life. Winners meet life's challenge head on, knowing there are no guarantees, and give it all they've got. Never think it's too late or too early to begin. Time plays no favorites, and will pass whether you act or not. Take Control Of Your Life. Dare to dream....Expand for more
Take risks. Compete. If you aren't willing to work for your goals, don't expect others to. ---> BELIEVE IN YOURSELF
At some point, you have to make a decision. Boundaries don't keep other people out. They fence you in. Life is messy. That's how we're made. So, you can waste your life drawing lines. Or you can live your life crossing them.
"Relationships don't work the way they do on television and in the movies. Will they? Won't they? And then they finally do, and they're happy forever. Gimme a break. Nine out of ten of them end because they weren't right for each other to begin with, and half of the ones who get married get divorced anyway, and I'm telling you right now, through all this stuff I have not become a cynic. I haven't. Yes, I do happen to believe that love is mainly about pushing chocolate covered candies and, y'know, in some cultures, a chicken. You can call me a sucker, I don't care, because I do believe in it. Bottom line: it's couples who are truly right for each other wade through the same crap as everybody else, but the big difference is they don't let it take them down. One of those two people will stand up and fight for that relationship every time. If it's right, and they're real lucky, one of them will say something."
-Dr. Cox
Everyone of us is like a man who sees things in a dream and thinks he knows them perfectly and then wakes up to find that he knows nothing.
- Plato, Statesman
"Most people, including ourselves, live in a world of relative ignorance. We are even comfortable with that ignorance, because it is all we know. When we first start facing truth, the process may be frightening, and many people run back to their old lives. But if you continue to seek truth, you will eventually be able to handle it better. In fact, you want more! It's true that many people around you now may think you are weird or even a danger to society, but you don't care. Once you've tasted the truth, you won't ever want to go back to being ignorant" -Socrates, The Allegory of the Cave, The Republic
To laugh often and much, to win the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children, to earn the appreciation of honest critics and endure the betrayal of false friends, to appreciate beauty, to find the best in others, to leave the world a bit better, whether by a healthy child, a garden patch... to know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived. This is to have succeeded!
-Emerson
"Death is very likely the best invention of life. All pride, all fear of embarrassment or failure, these things just fall away in the face of death, leaving only what is truly important." Steve Jobs
Defeat is not the worst of failures. Not to have tried is the true failure.
~ George Edward Woodberry".
