bo0m Posted August 26, 2015 Posted August 26, 2015 You’ve gotta dance like there’s nobody watching, Love like you’ll never be hurt, Sing like there’s nobody listening, And live like it’s heaven on earth.” | William W. Purkey “Be the change that you wish to see in the world.” | Mahatma Gandhi “Imperfection is beauty, madness is genius and it’s better to be absolutely ridiculous than absolutely boring.” | Marilyn Monroe, Marilyn “Listen to the mustn’ts, child. Listen to the don’ts. Listen to the shouldn’ts, the impossibles, the won’ts. Listen to the never haves, then listen close to me… Anything can happen, child. Anything can be.” | Shel Silverstein “I believe in pink. I believe that laughing is the best calorie burner. I believe in kissing, kissing a lot. I believe in being strong when everything seems to be going wrong. I believe that happy girls are the prettiest girls. I believe that tomorrow is another day and I believe in miracles.” | Audrey Hepburn “Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, ‘Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous?’ Actually, who are you not to be?” | Marianne Williamson, Return to Love “And, when you want something, all the universe conspires in helping you to achieve it.” | Paulo Coelho, The Alchemist “the only people for me are the mad ones, the ones who are mad to live, mad to talk, mad to be saved, desirous of everything at the same time, the ones who never yawn or say a commonplace thing, but burn, burn, burn like fabulous yellow roman candles exploding like spiders across the stars.” | Jack Kerouac, On the Road “Hope is the thing with feathers That perches in the soul And sings the tune without the words And never stops at all.” | Emily Dickinson “Do not go where the path may lead, go instead where there is no path and leave a trail.” | Ralph Waldo Emerson 82fc4d1fecd22db3ae6d288514de489d “None but ourselves can free our minds.” | Bob Marley “So we beat on, boats against the current, borne back ceaselessly into the past.” | F. Scott Fitzgerald, The Great Gatsby “Simplicity, patience, compassion. These three are your greatest treasures. Simple in actions and thoughts, you return to the source of being.

Compassionate toward yourself, you reconcile all beings in the world.” | Lao Tzu, Tao Te Ching “A ship is safe in harbor, but that’s not what ships are for.” | William G.T. Shedd “Meditate. Live purely. Be quiet. Do your work with mastery. Like the moon, come out from behind the clouds! Shine.” | Siddhārtha Gautama “Is it so bad, then, to be misunderstood? Pythagoras was misunderstood, and Socrates, and Jesus, and Luther, and Copernicus, and Galileo, and Newton, and every pure and wise spirit that ever took flesh. To be great is to be misunderstood.” | Ralph Waldo Emerson “Be patient toward all that is unsolved in your heart and to try to love the questions themselves like locked rooms and like books that are written in a very foreign tongue. 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 now. Perhaps you win then gradually, without noticing it, live along some distant day into the answer.” | Rainer Maria Rilke, Letters to a Young Poet “I don’t think I could love you so much if you had nothing to complain of and nothing to regret. I don’t like people who have never fallen or stumbled. Their virtue is lifeless and of little value. Life hasn’t revealed it’s beauty to them.” | Boris Pasternak, Doctor Zhivago “Tell me, what is it you plan to do with your one wild and precious life?” | Mary Oliver, New and Selected Poems “Only those who will risk going too far can possibly find out how far one can go.” | T.S.

Rowling, Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire “Your life is an occasion. Rise to it.” | Suzanne Weyn, Mr. Magorium’s Wonder Emporium “It is not revolutions and upheavals That clear the road to new and better days, But revelations, lavishness and torments Of someone’s soul, inspired and ablaze.” | Boris Pasternak “It’s so hard to forget pain, but it’s even harder to remember sweetness. We have no scar to show for happiness. We learn so little from peace.” | Chuck Palahniuk, Diary “Count your age by friends, not years. Count your life by smiles, not tears.” | John Lennon “With all its sham, drudgery, and broken dreams, it is still a beautiful world. Be cheerful. Strive to be happy.” | Max Ehrmann, Desiderata “Believe in yourself and all that you are. Know that there is something inside you that is greater than any obstacle.” | Christian D. Larson “All the world is made of faith, and trust, and pixie dust.” | J.M.

The good news is, there’s no ground.” | Chogyam Trungpa Rinpoche “In the midst of winter, I found there was within me an invincible summer.” | Albert Camus “be gentle with yourself.

Lewis a808062de7686c67cfcbdc67c45a7269 “All that is gold does not glitter, not all those who wander are lost” | J.R.R Tolkien “The most beautiful people we have known are those who have known defeat, known suffering, known struggle, known loss, and have found their way out of the depths. These persons have an appreciation, a sensitivity, and an understanding of life that fills them with compassion, gentleness, and a deep loving concern. Beautiful people do not just happen.” | Elisabeth Kübler-Ross “Whatever you are, be a good one” | Abraham Lincoln “Promise me you’ll always remember: You’re braver than you believe, and stronger than you seem, and smarter than you think.” | A. A. Milne “Out of suffering have emerged the strongest souls; the most massive characters are seared with scars.”| Kahlil Gibran “Ever tried. Ever failed. No matter. Try Again. Fail again. Fail better.” | Samuel Beckett “Live, travel, adventure, bless, and don’t be sorry.” | Jack Kerouac “We work in the dark – we do what we can – we give what we have.

I was the bridegroom, taking the world into my arms. When it is over, I don’t want to wonder if I have made of my life something particular, and real. I don’t want to find myself sighing and frightened, or full of argument. I don’t want to end up simply having visited this world.” | Mary Oliver “Don’t step into lives that aren’t yours, make choices that aren’t nourishing, or dance stiffly for years with the wrong partner, or parts of yourself.” | SARK 172670f74a47a1b9978a1e865485b568 “Emotional discomfort, when accepted, rises, crests and falls in a series of waves. Each wave washes a part of us away and deposits treasures we never imagined. Out goes naivete, in comes wisdom; out goes anger, in comes discernment; out goes despair, in comes kindness. No one would call it easy, but the rhythm of emotional pain that we learn to tolerate is natural, constructive and expansive… The pain leaves you healthier than it found you.” | Martha Beck “There shall be an eternal summer in the grateful heart.” | Celia Thaxter “Never stop dreaming of moonbeams and fairy dust, shiny stars and the wonder of the heavens, a happier life and a better world.” | James J. Gormley “Here’s to the crazy ones, the misfits, the rebels, the troublemakers, the round pegs in the square holes… the ones who see things differently — they’re not fond of rules… You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify or vilify them, but the only thing you can’t do is ignore them because they change things… they push the human race forward, and while some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius, because the ones who are crazy enough to think that they can change the world, are the ones who do.” | Steve Jobs “We are repeatedly what we do. Excellence, then, is not an act, but a habit.” | Aristotle “Stop wearing your wishbone where your backbone ought to be.” | Elizabeth Gilbert “Anything or anyone that does not bring you alive is too small for you.” | David Whyte “There will always be suffering. But we must not suffer over the suffering.” | Alan Watts “I can give you my loneliness, my darkness, the hunger of my heart, I am trying to bribe you with uncertainty, with danger, with defeat.” | Jorge Luis Borges “You must learn one thing. The world was made to be free in. Give up all the other worlds Except the one in which you belong.” | David Whyte 2 Quote
