Some Nice Thoughts

The most wonderful of all things in life, I believe, is the discovery of another human being with whom one's relationship has a glowing depth, beauty, and joy as the years increase. This inner progressiveness of love between two human beings is a most marvelous thing, it cannot be found by looking for it or by passionately wishing for it. It is a sort of Divine accident.




Love is not just looking at each other, it's looking in the same direction.




Love is but the discovery of ourselves in others, and the delight in the recognition.




Grief knits two hearts in closer bonds than happiness ever can; and common sufferings are far stronger links than common joys.




Him that I love, I wish to be free -- even from me.




Being deeply loved by someone gives you strength while loving someone deeply gives you courage.
--Lao Tso




Be of good cheer. Do not think of today's failures, but of the success that may come tomorrow. You have set yourself a difficult task, but you will succeed if you persevere; and you will find a joy in overcoming obstacles.
--Helen Keller




Never let yesterday's disappointments overshadow tomorrow's dreams.




The best indices to a person's character are how he treats people who can't do him any good, and how he treats people who can't fight back.




When one door closes another door opens; but we so often look so long and so regretfully upon the closed door, that we do not see the ones which open for us.




The secret of health for both mind and body is not to mourn for the past, not to worry about the future, or not to anticipate troubles, but to live in the present moment wisely and earnestly.
--Buddha
