Life's Lessons ....
-Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
"This is the law: Every thing existing on the physical plane is an exteriorization of thought, which must be
balanced through the one who issued the thought, and in accordance with that one's responsibility, at the
conjunction of time, condition, and place."
"Everything has been figured out, except how to live."
-Jean-Paul Sartre
"We are what we think. All that we are arises with our thoughts. With our thoughts, we make the world."
"To live a pure unselfish life, one must count nothing as one's own in the midst of abundance."
"He is able who thinks he is able."
"It is a man's own mind, not his enemy or foe, that lures him to evil ways."
"We will be known forever by the tracks we leave."
"An insincere and evil friend is more to be feared than a wild beast:a wild beast may wound your body ,but an evil friend will wound your mind."
William Drury Sr, College of the Atlantic
When your views on the world and your intellect are being challenged and you
begin to
feel uncomfortable because of a contradiction you've detected that is
threatening your
current model of the world or some aspect of it, pay attention. You are about to
learn
something. This discomfort and intellectual conflict is when learning is taking
place.
Ralph Waldo Trine
There are many who are living far below their possibilities because they are
continually
handing over their individualities to others. Do you want to be a power in the
world? Then
be yourself. Be true to the highest within your soul and then allow yourself to
be governed
by no customs or conventionalities or arbitrary man-made rules that are not
founded on
principle.
"The secret to finding something is knowing where it is."
Plato
To conquer oneself is the noblest and greatest triumph. 
Carl Sandburg
Nothing happens unless first a dream. "Don't walk behind me I will not lead, don't walk in front of me I will not follow, just walk beside me and be my friend."- Anon. 
"Lead, follow, or get out of the Way."
- Wallposter at C-LABS.
Charlie Tremendous Jones
If you can't be happy where you are, it's a cinch you can't be happy where you
ain't.
Love is being able to walk arm in arm...
even when you don't see eye to eye.
Love is when you take away
the feeling, the passion, the romance
and you find out you still care for that person.
Never say goodbye when you still want to try.
Never give up when you still feel you can take it.
Never say you no longer love a person when you can't let go.
If you love someone, tell them...
for hearts are often broken by words left unspoken.
Jean-Francois Regnard
We Love without reason, and without reason we Hate 
Leo Tolstoy
If we would only testify to the truth as we see it, it would turn out that there
are hundreds,
thousands, even millions of other people just as we are, who see the truth as we
do...and
are only waiting, again as we are, for someone to proclaim it. The Kingdom of
God is within you.
All truth goes through three steps: First, it is ridiculed. Second, it is violently opposed.
Finally, it is accepted as self-evident.
John Milton
The mind is its own place, and in itself can make a Heav'n of Hell, a Hell of Heav'n. 
Drops in the Ocean of Life
Leo Tolstoy
The only thing that we know is that we know nothing and that is the highest
flight of
human wisdom.
Emmett Fox
Life is a state of conciousness.
Salvadore Dali
Have no fear of perfection-you'll never reach it.
John Bentham
Nature has placed mankind under the government of two sovereign
masters, pain
and pleasure...they govern us in all we do, in all we say, in all we think:
every
effort we can
make to throw off our subjection, will serve but to demonstrate and
confirm it.
Ted Turner
The mind is just another muscle.
Dr. Harry Emerson Fosdick 1878-1969, protestant minister
Hold a picture of yourself long and steadily enough in your mind's eye
and you
will be
drawn toward it. Picture yourself vividly as winning and that alone
will
contribute
immeasurably to success. Great living starts with a picture, held in
your
imagination, of
what you would like to do or be.
Lawrence Bixby
Each handicap is like a hurdle in a steeplechase, and when you ride up
to it, if
you throw
your heart over, the horse will go along too.
Jesus Christ
According to your faith; be it done unto you.
And ...
H. Jackson Brown Jr.
A racehorse that consistently runs just a second faster than another horse isworth millionsof dollars more. Be willing to give that extra effort that separates the winnerfrom the one in second place.
George Moore
A man travels the world over in search of what he needs and returns home to find it.
Talmud
The sun will set without thy assistance.
Les Brown, speaker
You don't get in life what you want; you get in life what you are.
Peace Pilgrim 190? - 1981
Anything you cannot relinquish when it has outlived its usefulness
possesses
you, and in
this materialistic age a great many of us are possessed by our
possessions.
James Thurber
All men should try to learn before they die what they are running from,
and to,
and why.
Carl Bard
Though no one can go back and make a brand new start my friend, anyone
can start
from
now and make a brand new end.
Wayne Lukas
The speed of the leader determines the rate of the pack.
The best substitute for brains
is silence.
Whatever kind of word thou speakest, the like shalt thou bear.
Zukav
Reality is what we take to be true. What we take to be true is what we believe. What we believe is based on our perceptions. What we perceive depends on what we look for. What we look for depends on what we think. What we think depends on what we perceive. What we perceive determines what we take to be true. What we take to be true is our reality.
Anton Chekhov
Man is what he believes.
Eleanor Roosevelt
The future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams.
Kazantzakis
The real meaning of enlightenment is to gaze with undimmed eyes on all
darknesses.
John Quincy Adams 1767-1848
John Quincy Adams is well but the house in which he lives at the present
time is
becoming
delapidated. It's tottering on its foundations. Time and the seasons
have nearly
destroyed
it. Its roof is pretty well worn out. Its walls are much shattered and
tremble
with every
wind. I think John Quincy Adams will have to move out of it soon. But he
himself is quite
well, quite well. 1848
Hannibal
We will either find a way, or make one.
Peace Pilgrim 190? - 1981
As I lived up to the highest light I had, higher and higher light came
to me.
Edmund Cooke
You are beaten to earth?
Well, well, what's that?
Come up with a smiling face,
It's nothing against you to fall down flat
But to lie there-that's a disgrace.
Antonio Machado
Under all that we think, lives all we believe, like the ultimate veil of
our
spirits.
