Snips

"Some people mistake being loving for being a sap. Quite the contrary, the most loving people are often the most fierce and the most acutely armed for battle... for they care about preserving and protecting poetry, symphonic song, ideas, the elements, creatures, inventions, hopes and dreams, dances and holiness... those goodly endeavors that cannot be allowed to perish from this earth, else humanity itself would perish..."
Clarissa Pinkola Estes

To be always intending to make a new and better life but never to find time
to set about it is as to put off eating and drinking and sleeping from one
day to the next until you're dead.
Og Mandino

To seek happiness outside of ourselves is like trying to lasso a cloud. Happiness is not a thing, It is a state of mind.
Omar Khayyam

You cannot teach a man anything; you can only help him to find it within himself.
Galileo
