Life Quotes (page 482)

The "non-profit" institution neither supplies goods or services not controls. Its "product" is neither a pair of shoes nor an effective regulation. Its product is a changed human being. The non-profit institutions are human-change agents. Their "product" is a cured patient, a child that learns, a young man or woman grown into a self-respecting adult; a changed human life altogether. Peter Drucker
Lewis Carroll quote: "Ever drifting down the stream. Lingering in the golden gleam...."
Ever drifting down the stream. Lingering in the golden gleam. Life, what is it but a dream? Lewis Carroll
Chuck Palahniuk quote: "If you died right now, how would you feel about your life?"
If you died right now, how would you feel about your life? Chuck Palahniuk
His blood coursed through my veins sweeter than life itself. And as it did, Lestats words made sense to me. I knew peace only when I killed and when I heard his heart in that terrible rhythm, I knew again what peace could be. Anne Rice
Any reward that is worth having only comes to the industrious. The success which is made in any walk of life is measured almost exactly by the amout of hard work that is put into it. Calvin Coolidge
Nathaniel Hawthorne quote: "Shall we not spend our immortal life together? Surely, surely,..."
Shall we not spend our immortal life together? Surely, surely, we have ransomed one another, with all this woe! Nathaniel Hawthorne
Even the hard times are part of your life story. If you acknowledge them and move past them, they eventually add up to the experience that makes you wise. Miley Cyrus
The story of his downfall is soon told; for it came, as so often happens, just when he felt unusually full of high hopes, good resolutions, and dreams of a better life. Louisa May Alcott
God plants His saints in the most useless places. We say, 'God intends me to be here because I am so useful.' Jesus never estimated His life along the line of the greatest use. God puts His saints where they will glorify Him, and we are no judge at all of where that is. Oswald Chambers
One learns to accept the fact that no permanent return is possible to an old form of relationship; and, more deeply still, that there is no holding of a relationship to a single form. This is not tragedy but part of the ever-recurrent miracle of life and growth. Anne Morrow Lindbergh
People don't like being around despair. Our tolerance for the truly hopeless, for those who are irredeemably broken by life is strictly limited. The sob stories we like are the ones that end before we're bored. Salman Rushdie
... as long as American life was something to be escaped from, the cartel would always be assured a bottomless pool of new customers. Thomas Pynchon
Love all, trust a few, Do wrong to none: be able for thine enemy. Rather in power than use; and keep thy friend. Under thy own life's key: be check'd for silence, But never tax'd for speech. William Shakespeare
Things like that happen all the time in this great big world of ours. It is like taking a boat out on a beautiful lake on a beautiful day and thinking both the sky and the lake are beautiful. Things will go where they are supposed to go if you just let them take their natural course. Despite your best efforts, people are going to be hurt when it is time for them to be hurt. Life is like that. Haruki Murakami
...to find the universal elements enough; to find the air and the water exhilarating; to be refreshed by a morning walk or an evening saunter...to be thrilled by the stars at night; to be elated over a bird's nest, or a wild flower in spring - these are some of the rewards of the simple life. John Burroughs
