      “I love you not only for what you are, but for what I am when I am with you.  I love you not only for what you have made of yourself, but for what you are making of me.  I love you for that part of me you bring out.” ~ Roy Croft

        “No one is to be called an enemy, all are your benefactors, and no one does you harm. You have no enemy except yourselves.” ~ St. Francis of Assisi

          “What is more pleasant than the benevolent notice other people take of us, what is more agreeable than their compassionate empathy?  What inspires us more than addressing ears flushed with excitement, what captivates us more than exercising our own power of fascination?  What is more thrilling than an entire hall of expectant eyes, what more overwhelming than applause surging up to us?  What, lastly, equals the enchantment sparked off by the delighted attention we receive from those who profoundly delight ourselves? – Attention by other people is the more irresistible of drugs.  To receive it outshines receiving any other kind of income.  This is why glory surpasses power and why wealth is overshadowed by prominence.” ~ Caterina Fake, Founder of Flickr

                    “When we blather about trivial things, we ourselves become trivial, for our attention gets taken up with trivialities. You become what you give your attention to.” ~ Epictetus, The Art of Living

                        “Never lose sight of the fact that the most important yardstick of your success will be how you treat other people – your family, friends, and co-workers, and even strangers you meet along the way.” ~ Barbara Bush

                          “Pretend that every single person you meet has a sign around his or her neck that says, make me feel important. Not only will you succeed in sales, you will succeed in life.” ~ Mary Kay Ash

                                        “Love is like a friendship caught on fire. In the beginning a flame, very pretty, often hot and fierce, but still only light and flickering. As love grows older, our hearts mature and our love becomes as coals, deep-burning and unquenchable.”
