spooky Posted October 10, 2015 Report Share Posted October 10, 2015 Some from today's Daily Inspiration (I try to inspire myself everyday ) "Dream big and dare to fail" -Norman Vaughan "It is not the length of life, but the depth" -Ralph Waldo Emerson "There is nothing more dreadful than the habit of doubt. Doubt separates people. It is a poison that disintegrates friendships and break up pleasant relations. it is a thorn that irritates and hurts, it is a sword that kills" -Buddha "What we need is more people who specialize in the impossible."-Theodore Roethke "We relish news of our heroes, forgetting that we are extraordinary to somebody too." -Helen Hayes 3 Quote level 21 magic cat druid, doodlie for life sucking at something is the first step to being sort of good at something past challenges: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 Current (old) Battle Log, Battle Log Link to comment
Master Blackhawke Posted November 11, 2015 Report Share Posted November 11, 2015 "The Fates lead him who will, him who won't they drag." (Seneca) I personally see this as an early form of telling me to follow my bliss instead of fighting and going on a path I'm not meant to follow. By not following my bliss I got out of shape, my brain started losing its sharp edge, etc. By getting back on the path and 'not fighting the Fates' things have gone oh, so much better! My all-time favorite? "Do - or do not. There is no Try!" (good ol' Yoda!) Quote "The only decision that matters is what you do with the time that has been given to you."

Luds Posted December 7, 2015 Report Share Posted December 7, 2015 .. just found an old mail with Gemmel quotes ... “Nothing of real worth can ever be bought. Love, friendship, honour, valour, respect. All these things have to be earned.â€â€• Shield of Thunder “... Life can be savored only if you look to the future and leave vengeance to the gods†― Fall of Kings “Why now? Why not? Live or die, a man and a woman need love. There is a need in the race. We need to share. To belong. Perhaps you will die before the year is out. But remember this: to have may be taken from you, to have had never. Far better to have tasted love before dying, than to die alone.†― Legend “We cannot hide behind high walls, our hearts trembling. For that is not life. We must accept the needs and the duties of each day, and face them one at a time.†― Lord of the Silver Bow 4 Quote Remember that sensory deprivation causes hallucinations Link to comment

It's a chinese proverb that cracks me up and makes me not want to be shadeless in summer 20 years from now cause I didn't plant the stupid tree.....
