from Chicken Soup for the soul word-finds v. 195
One hundred years from now, it will not matter what my bank account was, how big my house was, or what kind of car I drove. But the world may be a little better, because I was important in the life of a child. Forest Witcraft
The object of teaching a child is to enable him to get along without his teacher. He has achieved success who has worked well, laughed often, and loved much. Elbert Hubbard
The master in the art of living makes little distinction between his work and his play, his labor and his leisure, his mind and his body, his information and his recreation, his love and his religion... He simply pursues his vision of excellence at whatever he does, leaving others to decide whether he is working or playing, to him he's always doing both. James A. Michener
The way of the miracle worker is to see all human behavior as one of two things: either love, or a call for love. There is no single effort more radical in it's potential for saving the world than a transformation of the way we raise our children. Marianne Williamson
Knowledgeable doesn't mean arrogant, nor does it mean boasting instead, those that are knowledgeable show the best of character when they are more than willing to share and to help others move forward in their own understanding ad personal growth. Byron Pulsifer
Sometimes it's harder to attain inner silence than outer silence. The dog stopped barking and the kids have gone to bed, but your mind has a lot to talk about and it knows you can't pretend you're not at home. Linda Solegato
One does not discover new lands without consenting to lose sight of the shore for a very long time. It is only in adventure that some people succeed in knowing themselves - in finding themselves. It is better to be hated for what you are than to be loved for something you are not. Andre Gide
I'm a great believer in luck, and I find the harder I work the more i have of it. Thomas Jefferson
When we honestly ask ourselves which person in our lives means the most to us, we often find that it is those who, instead of giving advice, solutions, or cures, have chosen rather to share our pain and touch our wounds with a warm and tender hand. Henri Nouwen
