Quotes that I like

[CMF]

I couldn't think of a more creative name for this thread so I kept it simple. I love coming across quotes that make me feel good or make me think about a situation in a different light. I have a "little book of confidence" that I used to carry in my handbag for when i needed it and I have a few other little books with quotes that I reflect on now and then

I thought it would be good to share some and encourage others to do the same.

For starters I have:

If you want to know someone's mind, listen to their words. If you want to know their heart, watch their actions.

People are not addicted to alcohol or drugs, they are addicted to escaping reality.

Give me the child. Through dangers untold and hardships unnumbered, I have fought my way here to the castle beyond the Goblin City to take back the child that you have stolen. For my will is as strong as yours, and my kingdom is as great. For my will is as strong as yours, my kingdom as great. You have no power over me. :- labyrinth

I love these from Anne of Green Gables...

"Isn't it nice to think that tomorrow is a new day with no mistakes in it yet?"

"You'd find it easier to be bad than good if you had red hair... People who haven't red hair don't know what trouble is."

Not so much a quote...but.... A friend of mine was telling me the other day that she was able to see the Dali Lama speak when he was in Australia. She said A lady went to his Holiness and said i am so lonely!

the Dali Lama replied, "There are 7 Billion people on the planet, there is no reason to be lonely"

something i wrote a while back, not a quote just something i wanted to share;

CANDLES-On or off or in between Your never safe never clean.Slumped or slumbered No rest between, Glance over shoulder, Stare down at your shoes. Remember chasing bliss is what we choose. You cannot have it all today, Take a piece and you might stay. But reach for more we stretch an yearn, while both ends of the candle we do burn.
