Yours Quotes (page 115)
Above all, avoid lies, all lies, especially the lie to yourself. Keep watch on your own lie and examine it every hour, every minute. And avoid contempt, both of others and of yourself: what seems bad to you in yourself is purified by the very fact that you have noticed it in yourself. And avoid fear, though fear is simply the consequence of every lie. Never be frightened at your own faintheartedness in attaining love, and meanwhile do not even be very frightened by your own bad acts.
Fyodor Dostoevsky
at last you, will say(maybe without speaking)(there are mountains inside your skullgarden and chaos, oceanand hurricane; certaincorners of rooms, portraitsof great-grandmothers, curtainsof a particular shade; your deserts; your privatedinosaurs; the firstwoman)all i need to know: tell meeverythingjust as it wasfrom the beginning.
Margaret Atwood
Because what's the use of learning that I am one of a long row only - finding out that there is set down in some old book somebody just like me, and to know that I shall only act her part; making me sad, that's all. The best is not to remember your nature and your past doings have been just like thousands' and thousands', and that your coming life and doings'll be like thousands' and thousands'.
Thomas Hardy
Dear lou, we learned so much. I realize we wont be able to talk for some time, And I understand that as I do you. The long distance thing was the hardest, And we did as well as we could. We were together during a very tumultuous time in our lives. I will always have your back and be curious about you, About your career, Your whereabouts.
Alanis Morissette
Every faculty you have, your power of thinking or of moving your limbs from moment to moment, is given you by God. If you devoted every moment of your whole life exclusively to His service you could not give Him anything that was not in a sense his own already ... It is like a small child going to its father and saying, 'Daddy, give me sixpence to buy you a birthday present.' It is all very nice and proper, but only an idiot would think that the father is sixpence to the good on the transaction.
C. S. Lewis
You are my brother and I love you. I love you worshipping in your church, kneeling in your temple, and praying in your mosque. You and I and all are children of one religion, for the varied paths of religion are but the fingers of the loving hand of the Supreme Being, extended to all, offering completeness of spirit to all, anxious to receive all.
Khalil Gibran
