The truth is that our finest moments are most likely to occur when we are feeling deeply uncomfortable, unhappy, or unfulfilled. For it is only in such moments, propelled by our discomfort, that we are likely to step out of our ruts and start searching for different ways or truer answers.
– M. Scott Peck
Your task is not to seek for love, but merely to seek and find all the barriers within yourself that you have built against it.
– Rumi
Joy does not simply happen to us. We have to choose joy and keep choosing it every day.
– Henri Nouwen
Always remember: If you’re alone in the kitchen and you drop the lamb, you can always just pick it up. Who’s going to know?
– Julia Child
Humor is emotional chaos remembered in tranquillity.
– James Thurber
The things that will destroy us are: politics without principle; pleasure without conscience; wealth without work; knowledge without character; business without morality; science without humanity; and worship without sacrifice.
