"It's not what we eat but what we digest that makes us strong; not what we gain but what we save that makes us rich; not what we read but what we remember that makes us learned; and not what we profess but what we practice that gives us integrity." ~ Francis Bacon

“They say true love only comes around once and you have to hold out and be strong until then. I have been waiting. I have been searching. I am a man under the moon, walking the streets of earth until dawn. There's got to be someone for me. It's not too much to ask. Just someone to be with. Someone to love. Someone to give everything to. Someone.” - Henry Rollins

“Clay is molded to form a cup, But it is on its non-being that the utility of the cup depends. Doors and windows are cut out to make a room, But it is on its non-being that the utility of the room depends. Therefore turn being into advantage, and turn non-being into utility.” - Lao Tzu

“There can be no knowledge without emotion. We may be aware of a truth, yet until we have felt its force, it is not ours. To the cognition of the brain must be added the experience of the soul.”

~Arnold Bennett

Adorable, the quote you posted reminded me of my all time favorite quote:

"To know and not to do, is not yet to know."

-Buddha

Happiness is not in our circumstances, but in ourselves.
It is not something we see, like a rainbow, or feel, like
the heat of a fire. Happiness is something we are.

John B. Sheerin

You were made for enjoyment, and the world was filled with things
which you will enjoy, unless you are too proud to be pleased with them,
or too grasping to care for what you can not turn to other account than mere delight.

John Ruskin





We don't stop playing because we turn old,
but turn old because we stop playing.

Satchel Paige

Socrates - some of my favorite quotes
 

Beauty is short-lived tyranny.

Beware the barrenness of a busy life.

Death may be the greatest of all human blessings.

False words are not only evil in themselves, but the infect the soul with evil.

He is richest who is content with the least, for the content is the wealth of nature.

I am the wisest man alive, for I know one thing, and that is that I know nothing.
