Random Quotes and Quotations
 With every rising of the sun, think of your life as just begun.  I am a man; nothing human is alien to me. - Terence If each of us were to confess his most secret desire, the one that inspires all his plans, all his actions, he would say: "I want to be praised." Never tell people how to do things. Tell them what to do and they will surprise you with their ingenuity. Proverty and wealth are comparative sins. Every man has his own destiny; the only imperative is to follow it, to accept it, no matter where it leads him. This is true joy of life-the being used for a purpose that is recognized by yourself as a right one, instead of being a feverish, selfish little clod of ailments and grievances, complaining that the world will not devote itself to making you happy. My punishment is greater than I can bear. - Bible Any idiot can face a crisis - it's this day-to-day living that wears you out. Our whole way of life today is dedicated to the removal of risk. Cradle to grave we are supported, insulated, and isolated from the risks of life- and if we fall, our government stands ready with Band-Aids of every size. Ask a toad what is beauty? ... a female with two great round eyes coming out of her little head, a large flat mouth, a yellow belly and a brown back. - Voltaire Now I am steel-set: I follow the call to the clear radiance and glow of the heights. What is mind? No matter. What is matter? Never mind. A conservative is a man who will not look at the new moon, out of respect for that "ancient institution," the old one. Cease to inquire what the future has in store, and take as a gift whatever the day brings forth. - Horace As a man thinketh, so is he, and as a man chooseth, so is he. It is a greater work to educate a child, in the true and larger sense of the word, than to rule a state. Positive thoughts (joy, happiness, fulfillment, achievement, worthiness) have positive results (enthusiasm, calm, well-being, ease, energy, love). - Negative thoughts (judgment, unworthiness, mistrust, resentment, fear) produce negative results (tension, anxiety, alienation, anger, fatigue). When virtue has slept, she will get up more refreshed. It is not the level of prosperity that makes for happiness but the kinship of heart to heart and the way we look at the world. Both attitudes are within our power, so that a man is happy so long as he chooses to be happy, and no one can stop him.
