“People toss around the words ‘loyal’ and ‘kindhearted’ as though they’re common qualities. But they aren’t. They’re so rare.” -Tessa Dare
Amen to that!
Quotes
The Fall Of Empire…
“The fall of Empire, gentlemen, is a massive thing, however, and not easily fought. It is dictated by a rising bureaucracy, a receding initiative, a freezing of caste, a damming of curiosity—a hundred other factors. It has been going on, as I have said, for centuries, and it is too majestic and massive a movement to stop.” ―Isaac Asimov
This is almost prophetic, it’s scary. 😦
We Are Not Alone
“We are not alone and our lives shouldn’t feel like the sum of our mistakes.” -Brandt Russo
And yet, I’ve never been more alone in my life.
Maybe The Reason Nothing Seems To Be…
“Maybe the reason nothing seems to be “fixing you” is because you’re not broken. Let today be the day you stop living within the confines of how others define or judge you. You have a unique beauty and purpose; live accordingly.” -Steve Maraboli
A Friend
“A friend … understands where you have been, accepts what you have become, and still, gently allows you to grow.”
-William Shakespeare
Never Neglect The Little Things
“Never neglect the little things. Never skimp on that extra effort, that additional few minutes, that soft word of praise or thanks, that delivery of the very best that you can do. It does not matter what others think, it is of prime importance, however, what you think about you. You can never do your best, which should always be your trademark, if you are cutting corners and shirking responsibilities. You are special. Act it. Never neglect the little things.” ―Og Mandino
Many Of Us…
“Many of us hold on to our pain, afraid to reveal it. Ashamed to admit it. We owe it to ourselves and everyone else to see that all people live painless and free. It is our duty to share what we know if it has helped us to move beyond some darkness in life.” —Iyanla Vanzant
The Artist And The Art
“Manifesting is accomplished by living with integrity and purity of heart and mind. Your mind, heart, and soul can be pure — if you choose. It doesn’t matter who you are, what you were, or where you came from. You can choose to be anything you want. That’s the beauty of life — you get to choose! This is how manifesting works — seeds that are planted grow. Who you are, what you believe, what you think, and how you feel — multiplies. You are compounding in lack or abundance. You are compounding in anger or kindness. You are compounding in gratitude or blame. You are compounding in all things, attitudes, beliefs, and choices. Every virtue you choose, your life will multiply in that goodness. What does manifesting mean? It means you are the artist and the art. Cultivate yourself. Take care with yourself. Love yourself. Manifesting is so simple. I can’t stress enough that the opportunities are not “out there” — they are inside of you, as a part of your own self-realization. Create a beautiful place inside of yourself and then begin to expand and build outward. As the beauty grows within you, let it touch every person you encounter and let it enrich the world around you.” -Bryant McGill
In A Time…
“In a time of destruction, create something.” -Maxine Hong Kingston
Correction Does Much
“Correction does much, but encouragement does more.” -Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
