I liked two of hers enough to post them here too:
Death is more universal than life; everyone dies but not everyone lives.
A. Sachs
A tough lesson in life that one has to learn is that not everybody wishes you well.
Dan Rather (1931 - )
And mine:
Life is like getting dropped off in the middle of the woods, and then year by year, gradually walking home. April Foiles
One thing I've learned in all these years is not to make love when you really don't feel it; there's probably nothing worse you can do to yourself than that. Norman Mailer (1923 - )
Sometimes, if you stand on the bottom rail of a bridge and lean over to watch the river slipping slowly away beneath you, you will suddenly know everything there is to be known. Pooh's Little Instruction Book, inspired by A. A. Milne [this one is for j5nn5r]
When one door of happiness closes, another opens; but often we look so long at the closed door that we do not see the one which has been opened for us. Helen Keller (1880 - 1968)
Too often we underestimate the power of a touch, a smile, a kind word, a listening ear, an honest compliment, or the smallest act of caring, all of which have the potential to turn a life around. Leo Buscaglia
A Native American grandfather was talking to his grandson about how he felt. He said, "I feel as if I have two wolves fighting in my heart. One wolf is the vengeful, angry, violent one. The other wolf is the loving, compassionate one. The grandson asked him, Which wolf will win the fight in your heart? The grandfather answered, The one I feed.
Anonymous, As told in Women Who Run With the Wolves
