When, in disgust or discouragement, we allow ourselves to reach depressive levels of despair because of our demeaning self-appraisal, it is a sad day for us and a sad day in the eyes of God.

Like the vital rudder of a ship, we have been provided a way to determine the direction we travel. The lighthouse of the Lord beckons to all as we sail the seas of life. Our home port is the celestial kingdom of God. Our purpose is to steer an undeviating course in that direction. A man without a purpose is like a ship without a rudder—never likely to reach home port. To us comes the signal: Chart your course, set your sail, position your rudder, and proceed. Thomas S. Monson

...the values ascribed to the Indian will depend on what the white writer feels about Nature, and America has always had mixed feelings about that. At one end of the spectrum is Thoreau, wishing to immerse himself in swamps for the positive vibrations; at the other end is Benjamin Franklin, who didn't like Nature. [p.91] Margaret Atwood
Laura Lippman quote: "Reading was not a fallback position for her but an ideal state..."
Reading was not a fallback position for her but an ideal state of being. Laura Lippman
Were we incapable of empathy? of putting ourselves in the position of others and seeing that their suffering is like our own? then ethical reasoning would lead nowhere. If emotion without reason is blind, then reason without emotion is impotent. Peter Singer
Like many another member of the gentle sex, she seems to have been ready enough to accept the perquisites of her position, but saw no reason why she should be asked to give anything in return. W. Somerset Maugham
When you want something with all your heart, that’s when you are closest to the Soul of the World. It’s always a positive force. Paulo Coelho
I had a lack of confidence, which caused me to back down from forcefully stated positions; an i was overly emotional at the expense of careful, "scientific" thought. I was thirty-seven years old and still discovering who I was Julia Child
Voltaire quote: "Doubt is not a pleasant position, but certainty is an absurd one."
Doubt is not a pleasant position, but certainty is an absurd one. Voltaire
Suddenly, just in time, I realised that he was a filthy Hun, so of course I turned my back on him and refused to shake hands. I think he noticed; anyway, I hope so. I hope he felt his position - General Murgatroyd Nancy Mitford
