Just putting here few (very very few) of them. Some of them are written by me :">. Each of them holds value for me, else it wouldn't have been in my collection.
Here they go:
• Most collectors collect tangibles. As a quotation collector, I collect wisdom, life, invisible beauty, souls alive in Words.
• Every moment of life is worth a celebration. If you have not appreciated life and its precious moments, it is time to do so.
• Laughter and tears are both responses to frustration and exhaustion. I myself prefer to laugh, since there is less cleaning up to do afterward.
• He who wishes to secure the good of others, has already secured his own.
• I cannot give you the formula for success, but I can give you the formula for failure: which is: Try to please everybody.
• One who asks a question is a fool for five minutes; one who does not ask a question remains a fool forever.
• Without love, the rich and poor live in the same house.
• Treat everyone with politeness Even those who are rude to you, Not because they are not nice But because you are nicer.
• If you can't dare fight for the things you want, you will always be upset with yourself.
• Real friends are the ones who survive transitions between address books.
• Don't aim for success if you want it; just do what you love and believe in, and it will come naturally.
• There is no point at which you can say, "Well, I'm successful now. I might as well take a nap." The moment you take, you will be crushed.
• The hardest thing to learn in life is which bridge to cross and which -- To burn. And it does hurt selecting the latter.
• Learn as much as you can while you are young, since life becomes too busy later.
• It is better to be hated for what you are than to be loved for what you are not.
• To silence other, first be silent yourself.
• You can't keep everyone happy. If you try, you will be playing dishonest to few.
• Trusting God won't make the mountain smaller but it will make climbing easier.
• You cannot be lonely if you like the person you're alone with, i.e. thyself.
• Sell your brawn and brain to the highest bidders but never put a price-tag on your heart and soul.
• If people are inferior of you then it means you have something which others are still dreaming of.
• An apology is the superglue of life. It can repair just about anything. But it has to be a 'Honest' one.
• "Life says 'yes' and gives u GOOD, says 'no' and gives u BETTER , says 'wait' and gives u the BEST"
• I don't need a friend who changes when I change and who nods when I nod; my shadow does that much better. I look for honest reactions.
• Take risks: if you win, you will be happy; if you lose, you will be wise.
• Live. Love. Laugh.
• Being defeated is often temporary, giving it up what makes it permanent.
• Fool me once, shame on You; fool me twice, shame on ME.
• If you can't be happy where you are, it's a cinch you can't be happy where you aren't.
• Be not afraid of growing slowly, be afraid only of standing still.
• Laugh with, not at, others.
• Not everyone can become a great artist, but a great artist can come from any one.
• When the world says, "Give up", Hope whispers, "Try it one more time."
• If you look at closely, more often than not, you will find the answer in the question itself.
• If thou are a master, be sometimes blind; if a servant, sometimes deaf.
• Great opportunities to help others seldom come, but small ones surround us every day.
• If you fill your heart with regrets of yesterday and the worries of tomorrow, you have no today to be thankful for.
• If you are still talking about what you did yesterday, you haven't done much today.
• Faith is taking the first step even when you don't see the whole staircase.
• Become a 'Possibilitarian'. No matter how dark things seem to be or actually are, raise your sights and see possibilities - always see them, for they're always there
• Finish each day and be done with it. You have done what you could; some blunders and absurdities have crept in; forget them as soon as you can. Tomorrow is a new day; you shall begin it with high spirits.
• If you are running in the popular track, run faster & overtake. Otherwise run in a different direction, the whole world will follow you.
• Yesterday is history. Tomorrow is a mystery. And today? Today is a gift. That's why we call it the 'Present'. Unwrap it!
• Try not; Do or Do Not. There is no try.
• If the child is not learning the way you are teaching, then you must teach in the way the child learns.
• Life is too short to wake up in the morning with regrets, so love the people who treat you right & forget the ones that don't and believe that everything happens for A reason.
• Before you speak, listen. Before you write, think. Before you spend, earn. Before you criticize, wait. Before you pray, forgive. Before you quit, try. Before you retire, save. Before you die, give.
• When you ask others 'why?', ask yourself 'why not?'. Most of the questions will be answered automatically.
• Life's battles don't always go to the stronger or faster person. But sooner or later, the one who wins, Is the one who thinks he can. Believe in yourself.
• Winning doesn't always mean being first, winning means you're doing better than you've done before.
• It is not what you gather but what you scatter that tells what kind of life you have lived. Spread light, joy, freshness & smiles.
• Life is like a rainbow. You need both the sun and the rain to make its colors appear.
• There's a difference between interest and commitment. When you're interested in doing something, you do it only when circumstance permit. When you're committed to something, you accept no excuses, only results.
• The smallest good deed is better than the grandest intention.
• Minds are like parachutes, they function only when open.
• Don't learn safety rules by accident.
• We lie the loudest when we lie to ourselves.
• Always have a positive attitude in life. There is something positive in every person. Even a stopped watch is right twice a day.
• Never be proud nor depressed for what you are, and the position in society you hold. Remember, "After the game is over King and Pawn go in the same box."
• When you are criticized, don't get upset. Remember that "No stones are thrown at a fruitless tree."
• What other people do shouldn't affect you - we do things because of the kind of person we each want to be.
• When the strong help the weak, it makes us all stronger.
• The most important single ingredient in the formula of success is knowing how to get along with people.
• Do for others as you would have them do for you.
• Here is a simple rule of thumb for behaviour: Ask yourself what you want people to do for you; then grab the initiative and do it for them!
• You can make more friends in two months by becoming interested in other people than you can in two years by trying to get other people interested in you.
• It is the weak who are cruel. Gentleness can only be expected from the strong.
• Be quick to listen, slow to speak and slower to become angry.
• Most of the trouble in the world is caused by people wanting to be important.
• If you are bitter, it will eat you up and do you much more damage than the people who have hurt you.
• Everybody has something good inside them. Some hide it, some neglect it, but it is there. No one is Bad internally.
• The best index to a person’s character is (a) how he treats people who can’t do him any good, and (b) how he treats people who can’t fight back.
• If a man is gracious and courteous to strangers, it shows he is a citizen of the world, and that his heart is not an island, cut off from other lands, but a continent that joins to them.
one for your smiles :)
