"Enjoy what you have, every little detail of wherever you are. Don't focus on were you aren't."
"What was love, really? Flowers, chocolate, and poetry? Or was it something else? Was it being able to finish someone's jokes? Was it having absolute faith that someone was there at you back?

"The difference between stupidity and genius is that genius has its limits."
-Albert Einstein
"When all else is lost, the future still remains."
-Christian Nestell Boyee
"Love the earth and sun and animals, despise riches, give alms to everyone that asks, stand up for the stupid and crazy, devote your income and labor to others, hate tyrants, argue not concerning God, have patience and indulgence toward the people... and your very flesh shall be a great poem."
-Walt Whitman
"If it is your time, love will track you like a cruise missile. If you say 'No, I don't want it right now,' that's when you'll get it for sure. Love will make a way out of no way. Love is an exploding cigar which we willingly smoke."
-Lynda Barry
"We like to think it is enough if we keep our own lives straight. Quite plainly it is not. If we talk cynically or encourage a lowering of standards, even though we still control our own actions, we become responsible for the failure of those who, weakened by our influence, fail to stand upright."
-George P.T. Sargent

Those quotes totally made my day!!! And now for the cascade of quotes that has accumulated while I disappeared...
Quotes from Maximum Ride: ANGEL by James Patterson
"Like, if you're gonna make a decision about me and my life for my own good without consulting me, I'd better be dying and unconscious, and you'd better be following carefully written instructions."
"There's nothing more dangerous than someone trying to act for the greater good."
"Why aren't crazy people content to take over, like, one town? It always has to be the whole world. They can't just control maybe twenty people. They have to control everyone. They can't just be stinking rich. They have to be incomprehensibly stinking rich. They can't just do genetic experiments on a couple unlucky few. They have to put something in the water. In the air. To get everyone."
"At a certain level, there are no best choices, no right decisions. Only choices that are less bad, decisions that are less wrong."
Quotes from Darkest Mercy by Melissa Marr
"Fear didn't outweigh love."
"War was always contemptible, but war for no reason other than greed was unforgivable."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"I found power in accepting the truth of who I am. It may not be a truth that others can accept, but I cannot live any other way."
-Eon by Alison Goodman
(this one has a personal meaning for me)
"Holding on to anger is like grasping a hot coal with the intent to throw it at someone else; you are the one who gets burned."
-Buddha
"There is one way to find out if a man is honest, ask him. If he says yes, then he isn't."
-Groucho Marx
"Nothing that is worth knowing can be taught."
-Oscar Wilde
"You may be able to call up the entire encyclopedia, but a brain with no heart and no reasoning... well, nothing is more meaningless."
-Blue Bloods: Masquerade by Melissa de la cruz
"Everyone knows the sensation of staring at a word for a long period of time until you start to wonder if it is really spelled correctly. In the same way, it was possible to doubt oneself, to wonder how long one could really be oneself."

"The bravery of idiots is bravery nonetheless."
-Doctor Who episode
