This beautiful quote found me today ...

"We cannot change the direction of the wind, but we can adjust our sail."

A dream is not what you see when you sleep.. a dream is something that doesn't let you sleep.

~APJ Abdul Kalam

Saints are sinners who did not stop trying.

As is a tale, so is life: not how long it is, but how good it is, is what matters.

"The price of anything is the amount of life you exchange for it."

-Henry David Thoreau

Knowledge is like jam.  The lesser you have of it, the more you feel the need to spread it. :)

Out of the clutter, find simplicity.
             From discord, find harmony.
                          In the middle of difficulty, lies opportunity.

~Albert Einstein

A friend sent me this beautiful quote recently :

"Don't judge each day by the harvest you reap, but by the seeds you plant."
                                    ~ Robert Louis Stevenson

"Every morning in Africa, a gazelle wakes up.  It knows it must outrun the fastest lion or it will be killed.  Every morning in Africa, a lion wakes up.  It knows it must run faster than the slowest gazelle, or it will starve.  It doesn't matter whether you're a lion or gazelle - when the sun comes up, you'd better be running."

Chanced upon this dialogue from "Good Will Hunting" that gives a definition for soul mate. This definitely is a part of my definition of soul mate too.

"Someone who challenges you in every way. Who takes you places, opens things up for you. A soul-mate."
