make a list of 100 quotes that inspire me

“The friend who can be silent with us in a moment of despair or confusion, who can stay with us in an hour of grief and bereavement, who can tolerate not knowing… not healing, not curing.. That is a friend who cares.”

I believe this with every inch of my being. First hand experience. Think about this when someone close to you is struggling. Often you don’t need to say anything much. Just be there with them and genuinely listen. It can mean the world.

“All healing is first a healing of the heart.”
-Carl Townsend

For a long time I was feeling sick constantly. But it was only when I started addressing my heart, that I started to feel better. This quote seems pretty right on. Now days people often ignore their heart/thoughts and emotions. In Western society we tend to focus on business and only physical ailments are considered legit, but the part we’re missing is that they are connected! In my opinion if we take care of ourselves mind, body, and spirit… we will be considerably more healthy.

“He who thinks he is able is able”
- Buddha

“People are unreasonable, illogical, and self-centered,
Love them anyway.

If you do good people will accuse you of selfish, ulterior motives,
Do good anyway.

IF YOU ARE SUCCESSFUL, YOU WILL WIN FALSE FRIENDS AND TRUE ENEMIES,
SUCCEED ANYWAY!

The good you do will be forgotten tomorrow,
Do good anyway.

Honesty and frankness make you vulnerable,
Be honest and frank anyway.

The biggest person with the biggest ideas can be shot down by the smallest person with the smallest mind,
Think big anyway.

What you spend years building may be destroyed over night,
Build anyway.

People really need help but may attack if you help them.
Help people anyway.

Give the world the best you’ve got and you may get kicked in the teeth,
Give the world the best you’ve got anyway.”

-Mother Theresa

“Be who you are and say what you feel because those who mind don’t matter and those who matter don’t mind.”

I was looking at quotes last night and picked out a few that made me feel empowered and positive about life. Not realizing that I posted this one once already I picked it out again. So being that it speaks to me that much I’m leaving both posts.

“They may forget what you said, but they will never forget how you made them feel.”

“Limitations live only in our minds. But if we use our imaginations, our possibilities become limitless.”

“Being close and being clever ain’t like being true”
~Edwards Sanders & Helena Bonham Carter

“Be who you are, and say what you feel, because those who mind don’t matter, and those who matter don’t mind.”
~Someone on myspace

“Work smart not hard”
-House

In one of my classes my teacher puts up a different quote everyday I think to inspire us to be creative and open minded. Anyway one that I liked especially was…

“Mistakes are part of discovery.” ~James Joyce

... It’s so true. It is impossible to be perfect and even so we would never learn anything if we didn’t stumble a little first. I love that quote it makes me feel like anything is possible.
