    “As human beings, our greatness lies not so much in being able to remake the world – that is the myth of the atomic age – as in being able to remake ourselves.” ~ Mahatma Gandhi

      “Try as much as possible to be wholly alive, with all your might, and when you laugh, laugh like hell and when you get angry, get good and angry. Try to be alive. You will be dead soon enough.” ~ William Saroyan

        “Only when the last tree has died and the last river has been poisoned and the last fish been caught will we realize we cannot eat money.” ~ Indian Proverb

          It's not about being better than someone else, it's about being better than you were the day before.

            "I, myself, am entirely made of flaws, stitched together with good intentions."

              Give, but don't allow yourself to be used.  Love, but don't allow your heart to be abused.  Trust, but don't be naive.  Listen to others, but don't lose your own voice.

              There’s more to life than money.

                There's more to life than money.

                Picture Quote Text:

                “To be rich in admiration and free from envy, to rejoice greatly in the good of others, to love with such generosity of heart that your love is still a dear possession in absence or unkindness – these are the gifts which money cannot buy.” ~ Robert Louis Stevenson

                  Sometimes, people never get what they deserve because they're too busy holding on to things they're supposed to let go of.

                    You cannot be lonely if you like the person you're alone with.

                      You cannot find peace by avoiding life. ~ Virginia Woolf

                        “Faith is daring to put your dream to the test. It is better to try to do something and fail than to try to do nothing and succeed.” ~ Robert H. Schuller

                          “We are going to die, and that makes us the lucky ones. Most people are never going to die because they are never going to be born. The potential people who could have been here in my place but who will in fact never see the light of day outnumber the sand grains of Arabia. Certainly those unborn ghosts include greater poets than Keats, scientists greater than Newton. We know this because the set of possible people allowed by our DNA so massively exceeds the set of actual people. In the teeth of these stupefying odds it is you and I, in our ordinariness, that are here.” ~ Richard Dawkins

                            Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world.

                              “Consider how many people had to be involved for a particular thought to be formed. Every thought you have involves everyone you have ever known: your teachers, your siblings, your parents, your parents’ parents, your parents’ teachers, and on and on. Without this participation from the whole, the thought wouldn’t have come out the way it did. It wouldn’t have the ground from which to form. You wouldn’t even have the language to think with.  Everything happens more out of a ‘we’ than a ‘me.’ Everything in the universe is involved with everything that happens. If everything in the universe participates in scratching your nose or having a thought or having a feeling, can you really call these experiences ‘yours?’” ~  Nirmala

                                An amazing analogy by Dr. Wayne W. Dyer:

                                  “How far you go in life depends on your being tender with the young, compassionate with the aged, sympathetic with the striving and tolerant of the weak and strong. Because someday in your life you will have been all of these.” ~ George Washington Carver

                                    “Quitting is leading too.” ~ Nelson Mandela

                                      “We ask ourselves, who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, handsome, talented and fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be?” ~ Nelson Mandela
