Most of us in the baby-boom generation were raised by full-time mothers. Even as recently as 14 years ago, 6 out of 10 mothers with babies were staying at home. Today that is totally reversed. Does that mean we love our children less than our mothers loved us? No, but it certainly causes a lot of guilt trips.

If I accept the fact that a god is absolute and beyond all human experiences, he leaves me cold. I do not affect him, nor does he affect me. But if I know that a god is a powerful impulse in my soul, at once I must concern myself with him, for then he can become important

Carl Gustav Jung, Psyche and Sym

He who doesn't fear death dies only once.

Giovanni Falcone

Love ENDURES and works out ways of enduring the other stuff. As long as you can communicate you can work out issues, but good communication seems to be one of the weakest skills in human beings, so don't be afraid to try and try different ways of communicating, be patient. Don't be afraid of seeking help either - the chance to keep love alive is too important to let fear get in the way.

Jay Woodman

Be thankful we're not getting all the government we're paying for.

Will Rogers

In a land which is fully settled, most men must accept their local environment or try to change it by political means; only the exceptionally gifted or adventurous can leave to seek his fortune elsewhere. In America, on the other hand, to move on and make a fresh start somewhere else is still the normal reaction to dissatisfaction and failure.

W. H. Auden

Those born into poverty or on the margins of society require our extra support to realize their dreams.

Novak Djokovic

The power is with the silent ones, who only live and love and then withdraw their personality. They never say me and mine ; they are only blessed in being instruments.

Swami Vivekananda

He who is not contented with what he has, would not be contented with what he would like to have.

Socrates

Let love give way to business; give attention to business and you will be safe.

Ovid

Something inside Clary cracked and broke, and words came pouring out. 'What do you want me to tell you? The truth? The truth is that I love Simon like I should love you, and I wish he was my brother and you weren't, but I can't do anything about that and neither can you!

Cassandra Clare

My father was not a failure. After all, he was the father of a president of the United States.

Harry S. Truman

Life's Tragedy is that we get old to soon and wise too late.

Benjamin Franklin
