Quote: Marcus Aurelius Do not waste what remains of your life in speculating about your neighbors, unless with a view to some mutual benefit. To wonder what so-and-so is doing and why, or what he is saying, or thinking, or schemingâin a word, anything that distracts you from fidelity to the ruler within youâmeans a loss of opportunity for some other task. Marcus Aurelius
Quote: Marcus Aurelius Let us overlook many things in those who are like antagonists in the gymnasium. For it is in our power, as I said, to get out of the way and to have no suspicion or hatred. Marcus Aurelius
Quote: Abraham Lincoln If ever I feel the soul within me elevate and expand to those dimensions not wholly unworthy of its Almighty Architect, it is when I contemplate the cause of my country, deserted by all the world beside, and I standing up boldly and lone and hurling defiance at her victorious oppressors. Abraham Lincoln
Quote: Marcus Aurelius You ought to realize, you take up very little space in the world as a whole â your body, that is; in reason, however, you yield to no one, not even to the gods, because reason is not measured in size but sense. So why not care for that side of you, where you and the gods are equals? Marcus Aurelius
Quote: Albert Einstein The devil has put a penalty on all things we enjoy in life. Either we suffer in health or we suffer in soul or we get fat. Albert Einstein
Quote: Maya Angelou The fact that the adult American Negro female emerges a formidable character is often met with amazement, distaste and even belligerance. It is seldom accepted as an inevitable outcome of the struggle won by survivors, and deserves respect if not enthusiastic acceptance. Maya Angelou
Quote: Albert Einstein The prestige of government has undoubtedly been lowered considerably by the Prohibition law. For nothing is more destructive of respect for the government and the law of the land than passing laws which cannot be enforced Albert Einstein
Quote: Marcus Aurelius Let it happen, if it wants, to whatever it can happen to. And whatâs affected can complain about it if it wants. It doesnât hurt me unless I interpret its happening as harmful to me. I can choose not to. Marcus Aurelius
Quote: Winston Churchill I contend that for a nation to try to tax itself into prosperity is like a man standing in a bucket and trying to lift himself up by the handle. Winston Churchill
Quote: Anthony Bourdain I don't think people should be encouraged to look like Kate Moss; I think that's unreasonable. I think the normal human body should be glorified. By the same token, if you need a stick to wash yourself, you're not healthy. Anthony Bourdain
Quote: C. S. Lewis Has this world been so kind to you that you should leave with regret? There are better things ahead than any we leave behind. C. S. Lewis
Quote: Og Mandino Success I will form good habits and become their slave. And how will I accomplish this difficult feat? Through these scrolls it will be done, for each scroll contains a principle which will drive a bad habit from my life and replace it with one which will bring me closer to success. Og Mandino Success
Quote: John Edward Sad I think that the majority of messages are validating messages to confirm the survival of conscious. And many times that validation message is negative or sad. John Edward Sad
Quote: Amanda de Cadenet Sad From 12-year-old girls to 70-year-old matriarchs, I know hundreds of women who have some sort of body image issue. This is sad and seriously worrying, but it's true, and it's why I feel some kind of social responsibility to do what I can to show a variety of body types in fashion magazines. Amanda de Cadenet Sad
Quote: John Muir Nature Climb the mountains and get their good tidings. Nature's peace will flow into you as sunshine flows into trees. The winds will blow their own freshness into you, and the storms their energy, while cares will drop away from you like the leaves of Autumn. John Muir Nature
Quote: Felix Adler Anniversary Perhaps a hundred people assembled one evening, May 15, 1876, at the time when the country was celebrating the hundredth anniversary of its political independence. Felix Adler Anniversary
Quote: Virginia Satir Sad Every word, facial expression, gesture, or action on the part of a parent gives the child some message about self-worth. It is sad that so many parents don't realize what messages they are sending. Virginia Satir Sad
Quote: George Orwell And yet, just for a moment, what almost frightening power had sounded in that cry from only a few hundred throats! Why was it that they could never shout like that about anything that mattered? George Orwell
Quote: John Muir Thousands of tired, nerve-shaken, over-civilized people are beginning to find out that going to the mountains is going home; that wildness is a necessity; and that mountain parks and reservations are useful not only as fountains of timber and irrigating rivers, but as fountains of life. Awakening from the stupefying effects of the vice of over-industry and the deadly apathy of luxury, they are trying as best they can to mix and enrich their own little ongoings with those of Nature, and to get rid of rust and disease. John Muir
