"Imagination was given to man to compensate him for what he is not; a sense of humor to console him for what he is."
~Francis Bacon |
I would have rummaged, ransacked at the word; Those old odd corners of an empty heart; For remnants of dim love the long disused, And dusty crumbling of romance!
~Robert Browning |
One who speaks fair words feeds you with an empty spoon.
~Italian Proverb |
"Double, double toil and trouble;
Fire burn and cauldron bubble." William Shakespeare Witches in Macbeth. |
If someone you love hurts you, cry a river, build a bridge and one day you will get over it.

Some say the glass is half full, some say the glass is half empty. I say “Are you gonna drink that?”

Seek out that particular mental attribute which makes you
feel most deeply and vitally alive, along with which comes the inner voice which says, “This is the real me,” and when you have found that attitude, follow it. William James |
You will not grow if you sit in a beautiful flower garden,
but you will grow if you are sick, in pain, experience losses, and if you do not put your head in the sand, but take the pain and learn to accept it, not as a curse or punishment, but as a gift to you with a very, very specific purpose. Elisabeth Kübler-Ross |
The one law that does not change
is that everything changes, and the hardship I was bearing today was only a breath away from the pleasures I would have tomorrow, and those pleasures would be all the richer because of the memories of this I was enduring. Louis L'Amour |
Trials, temptations, disappointments -- all these are helps instead of
hindrances, if one uses them rightly. They not only test the fiber of character but strengthen it. Every conquering temptation represents a new fund of moral energy. Every trial endured and weathered in the right spirit makes a soul nobler and stronger than it was before. James Buckham |
As we think, act, and live, here today, we build the structures of our homes in the spirit realms after we leave earth, and we build karma for future lives thousands of years to come, on this earth or other planets. Life will assume new dignity, and labor new interests for us, when we come to the knowledge that death is but a continuation of life and labor, in higher planes- Ella Wheeler Wilcox

Nobody really understood.... well, how could they? ~Jack Skellington- Nightmare Before Christmas |
Be a fountain. Not a drain. Rex Hudler |
And up on The Wall it goes!
Common sense is not so common.
~Voltaire |
Perhaps imagination is only intelligence having fun.
~George Scialabra |
We think too small, like the frog at the bottom of the well.
It thinks the sky is only as big as the top of the well. If it surfaced, it would have an entirely different view. Mao Tse-Tung |
It is the mind which creates the world around us,
and even though we stand side by side in the same meadow, my eyes will never see what is beheld by yours, my heart will never stir to the emotions with which yours is touched. George Gissing |
The world is round and the place
which may seem like the end, may also be only the beginning. Ivy Baker Priest |
In this world there
is nothing softer or thinner than water. But to compel the hard and unyielding, it has no equal. That the weak overcomes the strong, that the hard gives way to the gentle – This everyone knows, yet no one acts accordingly. Lao-Tzu |
A moment’s insight is sometimes
worth a life’s experience. Oliver Wendell Holmes |
