"As I grow to understand life less and less, I learn to live it more and more."
~Jules Renard "If you're old and you lose, they say you're outmoded. If you're young and you lose, they say you're green. So don't lose." ~Terry Brennan |

Love possesses not nor would it be possessed; For love is sufficient unto love. And think not you can direct the course of love, if it finds you worthy, directs your course. Love has no other desire but to fulfil itself."
But if you love and must needs have desires, let these be your desires: To melt and be like a running brook that sings its melody to the night. To know the pain of too much tenderness. To be wounded by your own understanding of love; And to bleed willingly and joyfully.” - Kahlil Gibran |
“With or without religion, you would have good people doing good things and evil people doing evil things. But for good people to do evil things, that takes religion.”― Steven Weinberg
“A fit, healthy body—that is the best fashion statement” ― Jess C. Scott “In a room where people unanimously maintain a conspiracy of silence, one word of truth sounds like a pistol shot.” ― Czesław Miłosz |
"Anger and humor are like the left and right arm. They complement each other. Anger empowers the poor to declare their uncompromising opposition to oppression, and humor prevents them from being consumed by their fury."
~James Cone "A truly strong person does not need the approval of others any more than a lion needs the approval of sheep." ~Vernon Howard "The moment you say 'I know everything' is the end of your growth." ~Sharon Lee |
"Pleasure may come from illusion, but happiness can come only of reality."
— Chamfort Chamfort "That pleasure which is at once the most pure, the most elevating and the most intense, is derived, I maintain, from the contemplation of the beautiful." — Edgar Allan Poe |
Though my soul may set in darkness, it will rise in perfect light;
I have loved the stars too fondly to be fearful of the night. |
You shall be free indeed when your days are not without a care nor your nights without a want and a grief, But rather when these things girdle your life and yet you rise above them naked and unbound.
Kahlil Gibran (1883 - 1931), The Prophet |
“Oh, the comfort — the inexpressible comfort of feeling safe with a person — having neither to weigh thoughts nor measure words, but pouring them all right out, just as they are, chaff and grain together; certain that a faithful hand will take and sift them, keep what is worth keeping, and then with the breath of kindness blow the rest away.” ― Dinah Maria Mulock Craik |
"Always do what you are afraid to do."
~Ralph Waldo Emerson |
You've gotta dance like there's nobody watching Love like you'll never be hurt Sing like nobody's listening And live like it's heaven on earth William W Purkey |

Taking one’s chances is like taking a bath, because sometimes you end up feeling comfortable and warm, and sometimes there is something terrible lurking around that you cannot see until it is too late and you can do nothing else but scream and cling to a plastic duck.
— Lemony Snicket |
“Not one that I have found in all my searching equaled the one that found me when I finally stopped.” ― Tyler Knott Gregson |
Literally put, guts are your bowels, entrails, intestines.
Not so pretty. But I have to say guts are good, and I don't mean when served on a plate with salt and pepper. You often hear tough guys in the movies talk about relying on such gut instincts as courage and fortitude, and I take a lesson from them. I always regret not relying on mine, and as I get older, I trust those messy innards more and more. Trusting my gut has helped me to push myself and take chances. And trusting your gut may be the best inner beauty tip I can offer. ~Tabatha Coffey |
No one respects a talent that is concealed.--Desiderius Erasmus

"Be patient toward all that is unsolved in your heart and try to love the questions themselves. Do not now seek the answers, which cannot be given you because you would not be able to live them. And the point is to live everything. Live the questions."
~Rainer Maria Rilke |
I used to cry. Then it was a long time till I could cry again. One day while walking through this beautiful world I saw something small and beautiful and I cried, but this time I was filled with joy. ~ SPS

We cease loving ourselves if no one loves us.--Madame de Stael

Quote:
The major barrier to a loving relationship with another person is an unloved part of yourself. Most of us have aspects of ourselves that we have never loved and accepted, and this failure to love ourselves keeps us from forming and keeping genuine love in close relationships. "The success of love is in the loving...it is not the results of the loving." -Mother Theresa Katniss~(clearly reading waaay too much into the 'quote' thread this evening...) |
"That's the thing with magic. You've got to know it's still here, all around us, or it just stays invisible for you."
~Charles De Lint |
Quote:
Have a good night-- and thanks for your detailed reply. |
“Never forget, Each day that we have together is a precious gift. In the web of daily living, we are creating character. Let's take the time to create memories, listen and observe. Time flees, and it does not return. If we lose today, it is gone forever. Let's live for the present, and be prepared for the future. Let's grow strong, let's grow bigger, let's grow TOGETHER!” ― Lina Cuartas, Come Into My World |
I found this quite fitting.....
Find someone who isn't afraid to admit they miss you. Someone who knows you aren't perfect but treats you as if you are. Someone who's bigger fear is losing you. One who gives their heart completely. Someone who says I love you and means it. Last but not least find someone who wakes up every day and falls for you all over again. --Unknown Every second of every day. |
Be who you are and say what you feel because those who matter don't mind and those who mind don't matter. Dr. Seuss
