  1. I love meaningful quotes

    my fav: "to the world you maybe one person, but to one person you maybe the world" -Heather Cortez


  2. I adore Dorothy Parker.  My favorite bon mot from her is; "What fresh h**l is this?".

  3. They will take time to read all but I have tried my best to follow and they inspire me. I just have one about love.

    “Be your own best friend and don’t forget to wink at yourself now and then.”

    Diane von Furstenburg

    “ If you don’t know where your going.

    Any road will take you there.”

    George Harrison

    “The foolish man seeks happiness in the distance;

    the wise man grows it under his feet.”

    “Never mistake knowledge for wisdom, one helps you make a living,

    the other helps you make a life.”

    James Oppenheim

    “You don’t get harmony when everybody sings the same note.”

    “If you don’t stand for something, you’ll fall for anything.”

    Doug Floyd

    “Learn to pause . . . or nothing worthwhile will catch up to you”

    “Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take,

    but by the moments that take our breath away.”

    ATTITUDE

    Charles Swindoll

    The longer I live, the more I realize the impact of attitude on life. Attitude, to me is more important than facts. It is more important than the past, than education, than money, than circumstances, than failures, than successes, than what other people think or say or do. It is more important than appearance, giftedness or skill. It will make or break a company… a church… a home.

    The remarkable thing is, we have a choice everyday regarding the attitude we will embrace for that day.

    We cannot change our past. We can not change the fact that people act in a certain way. We can not change the inevitable. The only thing we can do is play on the one string we have, and that is our attitude.

    I am convinced that life is 10% what happens to you and 90% how you react to it. And so it is with you… We are in charge of our attitudes.

    DESIDERATA

    Go placidly amidst the noise and haste, and remember what peace there may be in silence.

    As far as possible without surrender be on good terms with all persons.

    Speak your truth quietly and clearly, and listen to others, even the dull and the ignorant; they too have their story.

    Avoid loud and aggressive persons, they are vexatious to the spirit.

    If you compare yourself with others, you may become vain or bitter; for there will always be greater and lesser persons than yourself.

    Enjoy your achievements as well as your plans.

    Keep interested in your career, however humble; it is a real possession in the changing fortunes of time.

    Exercise caution in your business affairs for the world is full of trickery. But let this not blind you to what virtue there is; many persons strive for high ideals, and everywhere life is full of heroism.

    Be yourself. Especially, do not feign affection. Neither be cynical about love; for in the face of all aridity and disenchantment it is as perennial as the grass.

    Take kindly the counsel of the years, gracefully surrendering the things of youth.

    Nurture strength of spirit to shield you in sudden misfortune. But do not distress yourself with dark imaginings. Many fears are born of fatigue and loneliness.

    Beyond a wholesome discipline be gentle with yourself.

    You are a child of the universe; no less than the trees and the stars, you have the right to be here.

    And whether or not it is clear to you, no doubt the universe is unfolding as it should.

    Therefore be at peace with God whatever you conceive Him to be.

    And whatever your labors and aspirations in the noisy confusion of life, keep peace with your soul.

    With all its sham drudgery and broken dreams it is still a beautiful world.

    Be cheerful. Strive to be happy.

    IF YOUR NOT MARRIED YOU CAN DELETE HUSBAND.

    I added husband.

    Take my hand and walk with me,

    across the sands of time;

    Hand in hand and heart to heart.

    Husband . . . friend of mine.

    We will share the solitude.

    And walk in quiet peace.

    My heart hears what your heart says,

    it listens when yours speaks.

    We’ve shared hearts and souls as one,

    in perfect harmony;

    The laughter and the tears we’ve known,

    Are the sweetest melody.

    For years have brought us to this place.

    Across the sands of time;

    We’ll walk together, till the end.

    Husband . . . friend of mine.
