    "An eye for an eye only makes the whole world blind"~ Gandhi
    If you want to tell people the truth, make them laugh, otherwise they'll kill you.

    Man is least himself when he talks in his own person. Give him a mask, and he will tell you the truth.

    Life is a series of natural and spontaneous changes. Don't resist them, that only creates sorrow. Let reality be reality. Let things flow naturally forward in whatever way they like.
    -
    Manifest plainness, embrace simplicity, reduce selfishness, have few desires.
    -
    Seek not happiness too greedily, and be not fearful of unhappiness.

    It is paradoxical that many educators and parents still differentiate between a time for learning and a time for play without seeing the vital connection between them.

    Love is life. And if you miss love, you miss life.

    The vision that you glorify in your mind, the ideal that you enthrone in your heart - this you will build your life by, this you will become.
    ~ James Allen


    I now see my life, not as the slow shaping of achievement to fit my preconceived purposes, but as the gradual discovery of a purpose which i did not know.
    ~ Joanna Field


    The whole secret of a successful life is to discover your destiny, and then do it.
    ~ Henry Ford


    Dedicate your life to a cause greater than yourself, and your life will become a glorious romance and adventure.
    ~ Mack Douglas


    I think the purpose of life is to be useful, responsible, honorable, compassionate. It is, above all, to matter: to count, to stand for something, to have made some difference that you lived at all.

    What's your point? That you don't have nothing better to do than read the same type of thread over and over?

    There is no happiness,
    but there are moments of happiness.

    Take happiness when it comes, and rejoice.
    Take love when it comes, and rejoice.
    ~ Carl Ewald


    These are the magic years...
    and therefore magic days...
    and therefore magic moments.

    Starting each day I shall try to learn something new about me and about you and about the world I live in, so that I may continue to experience all things as if they have been newly born.
