Does anyone have any motivational or inspirational quotes or thoughts to share—

Here's mine...

"To thine ownself be true, and it shall follow as the night the day; thou canst not then be false to any man." Shakespeare

I love these words and have made my best attempt to live by them since I encountered this quote at the age of 17!

Here's a bit more of Albert (sigh...My Hero!!) for you!

"Once you can accept the universe as matter expanding into nothing that is something, wearing stripes with plaid comes easy." - Albert Einstein

(Love his humor!)

"The pursuit of truth and beauty is a sphere of activity in which we are permitted to remain children all our lives." - Albert Einstein

(No wonder he is my fave!)

"Few are those who see with their own eyes and feel with their own hearts." - Albert Einstein

(Hmmm. Interesting thought in this media driven society I live in!....)

"Try not to be a person of success, but rather a person of virtue." - Albert Einstein

"He who joyfully marches in rank and file has already earned my contempt. He has been given a large brain by mistake, since for him the spinal cord would suffice." - Albert Einstein

(Yeah...a guy definitely after my own heart! I would have married this guy!)

"Insanity: doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results." - Albert Einstein

(Maybe I need to look at my life patterns more closely...)

I do love Albert and wish I could have known him! (OK...now you know my secret fantasy!! LOL!)

Star...you amaze me...twinkling brightly somewhere out there in the internet sky...

I too am a fan of good 'ol Albert...not just because he's a fellow piscean but ecause his mind was unbelievable open. Those are excellant quotes...

Here are some of my favorate...

"a man who knows something knows he know nothing at all"...can't remember who but Luz said that to me on a previous posts.

"life is a jouney...enjoy the ride"...from a mazda ad.

"a wealthy man is he who does as he likes when he wants to"...can't remeber who that was either.

Ciao for now...
Durrie.
