Ours, my boy is a high and lonely destiny.
C.S. Lewis
They were seeking out the treasure of their destiny, without actually wanting to live out their destiny.
Paulo Coelho
That was a matter suspended between heaven and earth, awaiting the hand of destiny.
There is on the earth no institution which Friendship has established; it is not taught by any religion; no scripture contains its maxims. It has no temple nor even a solitary column...However, out fates at least are social. Our courses do not diverge; but as the web of destiny is woven it is fulled, and we are cast more and more into the centre. Men naturally, though feebly, seek this alliance, and their actions faintly foretell it. We are inclined to lay the chief stress on likeness and not on difference, and in foreign bodies we admit that there are many degrees of warmth below blood heat, but none of cold above it.
Henry David Thoreau
Carefully watch your thoughts, for they become your words. Manage and watch your words, for they will become your actions. Consider and judge your actions, for they have become your habits. Acknowledge and watch your habits, for they shall become your values. Understand and embrace your values, for they become your destiny.
Mahatma Gandhi
I believe in signs....what we need to learn is always there before us, we just have to look around us with respect
Our destiny exercises its influence over us even when, as yet, we have not learned its nature: it is our future that lays down the law of our today
Friedrich Nietzsche
Don't confuse poor decision making with destiny. Own your mistakes. It's OK; we all make them. Learn from them so they can empower you!
Steve Maraboli
What is the destiny of man, but to fill up the measure of his sufferings, and to drink his allotted cup of bitterness?
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
You must understand that love never keeps a man from pursuing his destiny. If he abandons that pursuit, it's because it wasn't true love.
Destiny is not a matter of chance, it is a matter of choice. It is not something to be waited for, but something to be achieved.
William Jennings Bryan
Today is a new day. Don't let your history interfere with your destiny! Let today be the day you stop being a victim of your circumstances and start taking action towards the life you want. You have the power and the time to shape your life. Break free from the poisonous victim mentality and embrace the truth of your greatness. You were not meant for a mundane or mediocre life!
We ought to face our destiny with courage.
Journeys end in lovers meeting, Every wise man's son doth know.
William Shakespeare
You are not a victim. No matter what you have been through, you're still here. You may have been challenged, hurt, betrayed, beaten, and discouraged, but nothing has defeated you. You are still here! You have been delayed but not denied. You are not a victim, you are a victor. You have a history of victory.
Walk any path in Destiny's garden, and you will be forced to choose, not once but many times.
Neil Gaiman
The efforts which we make to escape from our destiny only serve to lead us into it
Ralph Waldo Emerson
To realize one's destiny is a person's only real obligation and when you want something, all the universe conspires in helping you to achieve it.
Under an accumulation of staggerers, no man can be considered a free agent. No man knocks himself down; if his destiny knocks him down, his destiny must pick him up again.
Charles Dickens
I am only one; but still I am one. I cannot do everything; but still I can do something. I will not refuse to do the something I can do.
Helen Keller
