You control your future, your destiny. What you think about comes about. By recording your dreams and goals on paper, you set in motion the process of becoming the person you most want to be. Put your future in good hands -- your own.

The chief condition on which, life, health and vigor depend on, is action. It is by action that an organism develops its faculties, increases its energy, and attains the fulfillment of its destiny.

Pierre Joseph Proudhon

If some great catastrophe is not announced every morning, we feel a certain void. nothing in the paper today , we sigh.

Paul Ambroise Valery

The idea that creative endeavor and mind-altering substances are entwined is one of the great pop-intellectual myths of our time.

Stephen King

Man, at least when educated, is a pessimist. He believes it safer not to reflect on his achievements; Jove is known to strike such people down.

John Kenneth Galbraith

Why prove to a man he is wrong? Is that going to make him like you? Why not let him save face? He didn't ask for your opinion. He didn't want it. Why argue with him? You can't win an argument, because if you lose, you lose it; and if you win it, you lose it. Why? You will feel fine. But what about him? You have made him feel inferior, you hurt his pride, insult his intelligence, his judgment, and his self-respect, and he'll resent your triumph. That will make him strike back, but it will never make him want to change his mind. A man convinced against his will is of the same opinion still.

Dale Carnegie, How to Win Friend

Confusion has seized us, and all things go wrong, The women have leaped from their spheres,And, instead of fixed stars, shoot as comets along,And are setting the world by the ears!

Maria Weston Chapman, The Times

Audacity augments courage hesitation, fear.

Publilius Syrus

Sometimes it takes a walk through the darkness; to totally appreciate the light

L.M. Young

If you are truly flexible and go until... there is really very little you can't accomplish in your lifetime.

Anthony Robbins

In peace, as a wise man, he should make suitable preparation for war.

Horace

I went down to Safeways, and I bought her a packet of best ground sirloin.

Neil Gaiman

Partings are the beginnings of new meetings.Beginnings happen because there are endings.
