Thoughtful Quotes
Friendship is the greatest of all workly goods. Certainly to me it is the chief happiness of life. If I had to give a piece of advice to a young man about a place to live, I think I should say, "Sacrifice almost everything to live where you can be near your friends."
C.S.Lewis
Everyone thinks of changing the world, but no one thinks of changing himself.
Leo Tolstoy
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 and fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small doesn't serve the world. There's nothing enlightened about shrinking, so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within, it's not just in some of us; it's in everyone. And as we let our light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.
Nelson Mandela

What's wrong with thinking?"
"There's nothing wrong with thinking," Spitty began. "So long as you don't think too much. See, that's your problem, Stein. You dwell. It's not healthy. Sometimes you just gotta let things go, stop feeling sorry for yourself, stop trying to figure out the why and the how and the what does it all mean. Because we all die in the end anyway. Some people stick their heads in the oven. Other people just kneel over in the middle of dinner. But no one gets out alive. And that's the sorry truth. And that's why you gotta enjoy yourself now. Because that's all you basically get in life - a few superior kegs, a few worthwhile hangovers, a few nights when other crap fades into the background and it's just you and the moment and the moment is righteous.
What She Saw by Lucinda Rosenfeld

Benjamin Franklin
There are causes worth dying for, but none worth killing for.

Show me a man who has never failed, and I'll see a man who has never attempted anything.
Everyone is a moon, and has a dark side which he never shows to anybody.
Mark Twain
The holy passion of Friendship is of so sweet and steady and loyal and enduring a nature that it will last through a whole lifetime, if not asked to lend money.
Mark Twain
Thousands of geniuses live and die undiscovered--either by themselves or by others.
Mark Twain
The only way to keep your health is to eat what you don't want, drink what you don't like, and do what you'd druther not.
Mark Twain
You can't reason with your heart; it has its own laws, and thumps about things which the intellect scorns.
Mark Twain
From his cradle to his grave a man never does a single thing which has any first and foremost object but one--to secure peace of mind, spiritual comfort, for himself.
Mark Twain
