If it be as clear to you as the light of morn, say it! If it be not, say it not!

Talmud, Sanhedrin

One small crack does not mean that you are broken, it means that you were put to the test and you didn't fall apart.

Linda Poindexter

Americans are forever searching for love in forms it never takes, in places it can never be. It must have something to do with the vanished frontier.

Kurt Vonnegut

Whatever we believe about ourselves and our ability comes true for us.

Susan L. Taylor

Sadness gives depth. Happiness gives height. Sadness gives roots. Happiness gives branches. Happiness is like a tree going into the sky, and sadness is like the roots going down into the womb of the earth. Both are needed, and the higher a tree goes, the deeper it goes, simultaneously. The bigger the tree, the bigger will be its roots. In fact, it is always in proportion. That's its balance.

Osho

Trying to build a life where you never experience bad feelings is like building a ship that can't handle a storm.

Neil Strauss
