"It's never too late - in fiction or in life - to revise." ~Nancy Thayer

Rook · 09-03-2010, 07:40 AM

When concern for others' feelings and welfare is missing, our activities tend to become spoiled. Through lack of basic human feeling, religion, politics, economics, and so on can be rendered dirty. Instead of serving humanity, they become agents of its destruction. Therefore, in addition to developing a sense of universal responsibility, we need actually to be responsible people.

- Dalai Lama -

In 4,000 to 5,000 languages are rhythms:

A wave's pummel,
stirred ocean,
cloud bursts on islands over mountains,
burst of plant greens in loam,
it is spoken in sleep of Earth's name,
all life.

When you engage in a work that taps your talent and fuels your passion--that rises out of a great need in the world that you feel drawn by conscience to meet--therein lies your voice, your calling, your soul's code.

Stephen Covey

The finest eloquence is that which gets things done.
~last night's fortune cookie

Spirit Dancer · 09-04-2010, 08:30 AM

The cure for all the illness of life is stored in the inner depth of life itself, the access to which becomes possible when we are alone. This solitude is a world in itself, full of wonders and resources unthought of. It is absurdly near; yet so unapproachably distant.

Rabindranath Tagore

Spirit Dancer · 09-04-2010, 08:33 AM

There is in this world no such force as the force
of a person determined to rise.
The human soul cannot be permanently chained.
W.E.B. Du Bois

Spirit Dancer · 09-04-2010, 08:33 AM

A handful of pine-seed will cover mountains
with the green majesty of a forest.
I too will set my face to the wind
and throw my handful of seed on high.

Fiona MacLeod

We can easily forgive a child who is afraid of the dark;
the real tragedy is when adults are afraid of the light.
Plato

Each morning when I open my eyes I say to myself: I, not events, have the power to make me happy or unhappy today. I can choose which it shall be. Yesterday is dead, tomorrow hasn't arrived yet. I have just one day, today, and I'm going to be happy in it.

- Groucho Marx
