some of my 'less famous' favs...:)

In life we all have an unspeakable secret, an irreversible regret, an unreachable dream and an unforgettable love.---Diego Marchi


Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn't do than by the ones you did. So throw off the bowlines, Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream.---Mark Twain [Samuel Langhornne Clemens] (1835-1910)

Lots of times you have to pretend to join a parade in which you're not really interested in order to get where you're going. ---Christopher Darlington Morley (1890-1957)

Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it----George Santayana (1863-1952)

Imagination is the one weapon in the war against reality.---Jules de Gaultier

Later that day I got to thinking about relationships. There are those that open you up to something new and exotic, those that are old and familiar, those that bring up lots of questions, those that bring you somewhere unexpected, those that bring you far from where you started, and those that bring you back. But the most exciting, challenging and significant relationship of all is the one you have with yourself. And if you find someone to love the you you love, well, that's just fabulous.----carrie 'sex and the city'


well these are just a few of my fav quotes...would love to hear urs :)

One of the recent quotes I read from a book was... "peace" is not the opposite of "war", it can exist even amidst war.

It seems a nice compilation of quotes and comments. Here are few of my favs

In the attitude of silence the soul finds the path in a clearer light, and what is elusive and deceptive resolves itself into crystal clearness. Our life is a long and arduous quest after Truth. - Mahatma Gandhi

The only way most people recognize their limits is by trespassing on them. - Tom Morris

In the sweetness of friendship; let there be laughter and the sharing of pleasures. For in the dew of little things the heart finds its morning and is refreshed. - Khalil Gibran

Friendship is certainly the finest balm for the pangs of disappointed love. - Jane Austen

Every one of us gets through the tough times because somebody is there, standing in the gap to close it for us. - Oprah Winfrey

I have learned silence from the talkative, toleration from the intolerant, and kindness from those unkind; yet strange, I am ungrateful to those teachers.
