Ella Wheeler Wilcox: From reincarnated...

From reincarnated sources and through prenatal causes I was born with unquenchable hope and unfaltering faith in God and guardian spirits. I often wept myself to sleep after a day of disappointments and worries but woke in the morning singing aloud with the joy of life.…Once I read a sentence which became a life motto to me. 'If you haven't what you like, try to like what you have.' I bless the author for that phrase it was such a help to me.
/Ella Wheeler Wilcox/

Anais Nin: The personal...

The personal life deeply lived always expands into truths beyond itself.
/Anais Nin/

Bob Taft: What we...

What we don't talk about enough is Ohio's unique and remarkable quality of life. We are a state of cities, small towns and growing suburbs where life is affordable and destinations within reach. There is no better place to raise a family.
/Bob Taft/

William O. Douglas: I realized...

I realized that Eastern thought had somewhat more compassion for all living things. Man was a form of life that in another reincarnation might possibly be a horsefly or a bird of paradise or a deer. So a man of such a faith, looking at animals, might be looking at old friends or ancestors. In the East the wilderness has no evil connotation; it is thought of as an expression of the unity and harmony of the universe.
/William O. Douglas/

George Washington: To point...

To point out the importance of circumspection in your conduct, it may be proper to observe that a good moral character is the first essential in a man, and that the habits contracted at your age are generally indelible, and your conduct here may stamp your character through life. It is therefore highly important that you should endeavor not only to be learned but virtuous.
/George Washington/

Judd Nelson: Heroes always...

Heroes always make the right decision; I find that seldom happens in my life.
/Judd Nelson/

Max Nordau: Civilization is...

Civilization is built on a number of ultimate principles...respect for human life, the punishment of crimes against property and persons, the equality of all good citizens before the law...or, in a word justice.
/Max Nordau/

If I had my life to live again. I'd make the same mistakes, only sooner.
/Tallulah Bankhead/

Carol Shields: Learning to...

Learning to skip has brought control into her life. Whenever she feels all sad, she switches into this wholly happy gait, sliding, hopping, and sliding again; when doing this, it seems as though her head separates from her body, making her feel dizzy and emptied out of bad thoughts. Does anyone else know this trick, she wonders? Probably not, although her Mother sometimes smiles and waves from the window.
/Carol Shields/

Sri Aurobindo: Life is...

Life is life - whether in a cat, or dog or man. There is no difference there between a cat or a man. The idea of difference is a human conception for man's own advantage.
/Sri Aurobindo/

Anna Garland Spencer: The family...

The family must be democratized in that sense in which each individual within its bond shall be sustained in seeking and in maintaining the conditions of personality. No one human being to live solely for other's service..., but all to seek the utmost perfection of individual life as a contribution to the common life; this is the democratic ideal. There seems to be no other inherited institution in which this spiritual essence of democracy can be so clearly and so well realized as it may be and today often is in the private monogamic family.
/Anna Garland Spencer/

Frederick William Faber: We must...

We must have passed through life unobservantly, if we have never perceived that a man is very much himself what he thinks of others.
/Frederick William Faber/
