I like spring, but it is too young. I like summer, but it is too proud. So I like best of all autumn, because its tone is mellower, its colours are richer, and it is tinged with a little sorrow. Its golden richness speaks not of the innocence of spring, nor the power of summer, but of the mellowness and kindly wisdom of approaching age. It knows the limitations of life and its content.

The death of a beloved is an amputation.

C.S. Lewis

I barrel into his arms, my mouth connecting with his. Seizing him. Feeling him. Loving him.

K.A. Tucker

Challenges are what make life interesting; overcoming them is what makes life meaningful.

Joshua J. Marine

All brave men love for he only is brave who has affections to fight for, whether in the daily battle of life, or in physical contests.

Nathaniel Hawthorne

It should be noted that children's games are not merely games. One should regard them as their most serious activities.

Michel de Montaigne

Research challenges the materialistic understanding of death, according to which biological death represents the final end of existence and of all conscious activity.

Stanislav Grof

We are not in a position in which we have nothing to work with. We already have capacities, talents, direction, missions, callings.

Abraham Maslow

The day is not far distant when the man who dies leaving behind him millions of available wealth, which was free for him to administer during life, will pass away unwept, unhonored, and unsung, no matter to what uses he leave the dross which he cannot take with him. Of such as these the public verdict will then be: The man who dies thus rich dies disgraced. Such, in my opinion, is the true gospel concerning wealth, obedience to which is destined some day to solve the problem of the rich and the poor.

Andrew Carnegie

Don't get yourself in certain circumstances or instances, because it's not a good feeling to be sitting in that chair where you've got 12 people that are in control of your life. You have an opportunity to be in control of your life for yourself by the decisions that you make.

Puff Daddy

Cushion the painful effects of hard blows by keeping the enthusiasm going strong, even if doing so requires struggle.

Norman Vincent Peale

I hold it, that a little rebellion, now and then, is a good thing, and as necessary in the political world as storms in the physical.

Thomas Jefferson

Do not let another day go by where your dedication to other people's opinions is greater than your dedication to your own emotions!
