gorgeous post! lately, my favorite quote has been:
“I cannot teach you violence, as I do not myself believe in it. I can only teach you not to bow your heads before any one even at the cost of your life.” – Gandhi
Brandi~ there are some really extraordinary ones out there! thanks for sharing!
Doesn’t surprise me that you captured a few of my favorites.
Mel~

Thanks V!
Thank you for sharing your FAVS, Lady Sorrow!
They’re all wonderful.
I think the one that touches me the most, is the one by Helen Keller.
What an awesome teacher she was…and STILL is!
Have wonderful day, dear Lady!
Ron~ Thanks sunshine! glad you liked, I posted the Yoda one and thought of you!
I love the last one in particular
Grace~
yeah, thats a fav of mine, but i have no one to give it credit to, my pop always says this, and i know it’s not an original Pop!
LOL
Wonderful!
I can’t remember where i heard this one, but I like it enough to remember it:
“Sanity is a playground for the unimaginative.”
C:)
Hmmm, I have never heard that one, kinda scary..
~smile~
Those are great quotes! The Hellen Keller one was especially poignant, what an incredible woman she was! Though I do like craig’s quite a bit as well! lol. Thanks for tagging me – I’ll have fun collecting a few of my favorites.
Go deb go!
I know i will enjoy your selection!
I am tagging myself and adding a quote that reminded me of your “The long exhale of doing…” post and your need to make time to nurture yourself, as we all need to do. I have this one up where I can see it every day.
“Go for long walks. Indulge in hot baths. Question your assumptions. Be kind to yourself. Live for the moment. Loosen up, scream, curse the world, count your blessings. Just let go, just be.” Carol Shields
Mamma moon,
Thats a wonderful quote, we should all have that up somewhere we can see it..
Great quotes, especially the first.
I like the Sanskrit one…..
Whilst you are remembering yesterday and dreaming about tomorrow, life is happening right now.
Or Nelson Mandela’s;
…. When we are liberated form our own fear,
Our presence automatically liberates others.

(((Hugs and smooches to you)))
“Learn to be silent.
Let your quiet mind listen and absorb.”
Pythagorus
I wish more people (politicians?) would learn this.
Nitebyrd~
wise words from a wise soul, it’s a shame that wise ones know not to go anywhere near politics..
I love a good quote. Watch this space..
Watchin!

Sorrow,
Thank you for the spotlight. Sorry but I’m not much for quotes so I’ll leave my response here.
“In the absence of tyrants people self-oppress. Those that don’t self-oppress, self-medicate.”
