Here is a list of quotes that have struck me in some way. They may be funny to insightful. This will remain public and will be added to often.
"People travel to wonder at the height of the mountains, at the huge waves of the seas, at the long course of the rivers, at the vast compass of the ocean, at the circular motion of the stars, and yet they pass by themselves without wondering" - St. Augustine
"Nobody wants to admit to this, but bad thingd will keep on happening. Maybe that's because it's all a chain and a long time ago someone did the first bad thing, and that led someone else to do another bad thing, and so on. You know, like that game where you whsiper a sentence into someone's ear, and that person whispers it to someone else, and it comes out wrong in the end. But then again maybe bad things happen because it's the only way we can keep remembering what good is supposed to look like."
"I have come to the conclusion that whether or not a person is a religious believer does not matter much. Far more important is that they be a good human being." - Dalai Lama
"The human spirit needs places where nature had not been rearranged by the hand of man."
"There is nothing like returning to a place that remains unchanged to find the ways in which you yourself have altered." - Nelson Mandela
"People are unreasonable, illogical, and self-centered. Love them anyway. If you do good, people may accuse you of selfish motives. Do good anyway. If you are successful, you may win false friends and true enemies. Succeed anyway. The good you do today may be forgotten tomorrow. Do good anyway. Honesty and transparency make you vulnerable. Be honest and transparent anyway. What you spend years building may be destroyed overnight. Build anyway. People who really want help may attack you if you help them. Help them anyway. Give the world the best you have and you may get hurt. Give the world your best anyway."
"Little girls, this seems to say,
Never stop upon your way,
Never trust a stranger friend;
No one knows how it will end.
As your pretty so be wise;
Wolves may lurk in every guise.
Handsome they may be, and kind,
Gay, or charming- nevermind!
Now, as then, tis simple truth-
Sweetest tongue has sharpest tooth!"
Q is the queen of my
storybook dreams
where everything good
is as good as it seems
where thunder loves lightning
and rainbows love rain
and moonlight and stardust
kiss again and again
where everything good
is as good as it seems
I fall asleep dreaming
my storybook dreams
