Quotes I love . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

 

Quotes inspired and motivated me when I was working on my book.

"Whatever course you decide upon, there is always someone to tell you
that you are wrong. There are always difficulties arising which tempt you
to believe that your critics are right.
To map out a course of action and follow it to an end requires... courage."

-- Ralph Waldo Emerson  1803-1882, Poet and Essayist

"Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is
that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our
darkness, that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, ‘Who am I to be
brilliant, gorgeous, talented and fabulous?’ Actually, who are you
not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small doesn’t serve
the world. There’s nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other
people won’t fell insecure around you. We were born to manifest the
glory of God that is within us. And as we let our own light shine, we
unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are
liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.”

-- Nelson Mandela quoting Marianne Williamson's book, "Return to Love"

"You know one thing about pressure, honey? It either crushes you or
it makes you into a diamond. Which are you going to be?"
-- my friend Jack Altraitese

::

"When one door closes another one opens;
but we so often look so long and so regretfully upon the closed door,
that we do not see the ones which open for us."
-- Alexander Graham Bell  1847-1922, Inventor
