our time is limited, so don't waste it living someone else's life. Don't be trapped by dogma - which is living with the results of other people's thinking. Don't let the noise of other's opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary.
“Innovation distinguishes between a leader and a follower.” “.. almost everything – all external expectations, all pride, all fear of embarrassment or failure - these things just fall away in the face of death, leaving only what is truly important. Remembering that you are going to die is the best way I know to avoid the trap of thinking you have something to lose. You are already naked. There is no reason not to follow your heart. “Why join the navy if you can be a pirate? “Anyone can give up, it's the easiest thing in the world to do. But to hold it together when everyone else would understand if you fell apart, that's true strength |

The propagandist's purpose is to make one set of people forget that certain other sets of people are human. Aldous Huxley, novelist (1894-1963)
We have not passed that subtle line between childhood and adulthood until we move from the passive voice to the active voice - that is, until we have stopped saying 'It got lost,' and say, 'I lost it.' n-Sydney J. Harris, journalist (1917-1986) We take our colors, chameleon-like, from each other. -Sebastien-Roch-Nicolas de Chamfort, writer (1741-1794) He who sees a need and waits to be asked for help is as unkind as if he had refused it. Dante Alighieri, poet (1265-1321) I speak to everyone in the same way, whether he is the garbage man or the president of the university. Albert Einstein, physicist, Nobel laureate (1879-1955) Words, like nature, half reveal and half conceal the soul within.Alfred, Lord Tennyson, poet (1809-1892) The animal shall not be measured by man. In a world older and more complete than ours, they move finished and complete, gifted with extension of the senses we have lost or never attained, living by voices we shall never hear. They are not brethren; they are not underlings; they are other nations, caught with ourselves in the net of life and time, fellow prisoners of the splendor and travail of the earth. Henry Beston, naturalist and author (1888-1968) The Earth is a very small stage in a vast cosmic arena. Think of the rivers of blood spilled by all those generals and emperors so that, in glory and triumph, they could become the momentary masters of a fraction of a dot. Think of the endless cruelties visited by the inhabitants of one corner of this pixel on the scarcely distinguishable inhabitants of some other corner, how frequent their misunderstandings, how eager they are to kill one another, how fervent their hatreds. Carl Sagan, astronomer and writer (1934-1996) We all should know that diversity makes for a rich tapestry, and we must understand that all the threads of the tapestry are equal in value no matter what their color. Maya Angelou, poet (b. 1928) or money you can have everything it is said. No, that is not true. You can buy food, but not appetite; medicine, but not health; soft beds, but not sleep; knowledge but not intelligence; glitter, but not comfort; fun, but not pleasure; acquaintances, but not friendship; servants, but not faithfulness; grey hair, but not honor; quiet days, but not peace. The shell of all things you can get for money. But not the kernel. That cannot be had for money. Arne Garborg, writer (1851-1924) 'Sometimes people are nothing. You make them something. And when they become something, they feel that you are nothing.' Relations are like a glass. A scratch on one side will reflect on the other side too. So always handle feelings carefully because that scratch can't be removed. When someone shares something of value with you and you get benefit from it, you have a moral obligation to share it with others. Chinese Proverb 'If the Path is beautiful, first confirm where does it lead? But, if the Destination is beautiful, don't check how the path is'.....Keep Walking! There is only one success - to be able to spend your life in your own way. Christopher Morley (1890 - 1957) *************************************** FIVE NICE LITTLE STORIES 1. Once, all villagers decided to pray for rain, on the day of prayer all the People gathered but only one boy came with an umbrella... THAT'S FAITH 2. When you throw a baby in the air, she laughs because she knows you will catch her... THAT'S TRUST 3.Every night we go to bed, without any assurance of being alive the next Morning but still we set the alarms in our watch to wake up... THAT'S HOPE 4. We plan big things for tomorrow in spite of zero knowledge of the future or having any certainty of uncertainties... THAT'S CONFIDENCE 5. We see the world suffering. We know there is every possibility of same or similar things happening to us. But still we get married??.. THAT'S OVER CONFIDENCE!! *************************************** Life is too short to waste time to hating anyone. No one is incharge of your happiness except you. Your job won't take care of you when you are sick. Your friends will. Stay in touch. Life is incomplete without words, but tasteless without love. Good relations are like trees they demand attention & care in the beginning but once they blossom they provide you shade in all situations of life. I react pragmatically. Where the market works, I'm for that. Where the government is necessary, I'm for that. I'm deeply suspicious of somebody who says, "I'm in favor of privatization," or, "I'm deeply in favor of public ownership." I'm in favor of whatever works in the particular case. John Kenneth Galbraith, economist (1908-2006) I wanted a perfect ending. Now I've learned, the hard way, that some poems don't rhyme, and some stories don't have a clear beginning, middle, and end. Life is about not knowing, having to change, taking the moment and making the best of it, without knowing what's going to happen next. Delicious ambiguity. Gilda Radner -actress and comedian (1946-1989) Kill a man, and you are an assassin. Kill millions of men, and you are a conqueror. Kill everyone, and you are a god. Jean Rostand, biologist and philosopher (1894-1977) Memories are interpreted like dreams. Leo Longanesi, journalist and editor (1905-1957) Last edited by Andrew Dufresne; Sunday, March 13, 2011 at 01:58 AM. |

Top 10 Authors:
1. Stephen Covey
2. Wayne Dyer 3. Mother Teresa 4. Dalai Lama 5. Barack Obama 6. Tony Robbins 7. Buddha 8. Albert Einstein 9. Maya Angelou 10. Thomas Jefferson Every human has four endowments- self awareness, conscience, independent will and creative imagination. These give us the ultimate human freedom... The power to choose, to respond, to change. Stephen Covey A mind at peace, a mind centered and not focused on harming others, is stronger than any physical force in the universe. Wayne Dyer Being unwanted, unloved, uncared for, forgotten by everybody, I think that is a much greater hunger, a much greater poverty than the person who has nothing to eat. Mother Teresa Our prime purpose in this life is to help others. And if you can't help them, at least don't hurt them. Dalai Lama A good compromise, a good piece of legislation, is like a good sentence; or a good piece of music. Everybody can recognize it. They say, 'Huh. It works. It makes sense.' Barack Obama A real decision is measured by the fact that you've taken a new action. If there's no action, you haven't truly decided. Tony Robbins All that we are is the result of what we have thought. If a man speaks or acts with an evil thought, pain follows him. If a man speaks or acts with a pure thought, happiness follows him, like a shadow that never leaves him. Buddha A person who never made a mistake never tried anything new. Albert Einstein As far as I knew white women were never lonely, except in books. White men adored them, Black men desired them and Black women worked for them. Maya Angelou A coward is much more exposed to quarrels than a man of spirit. Thomas Jefferson |

All paid jobs absorb and degrade the mind.Aristotle.
All paid jobs absorb and degrade the mind. Aristotle. “The greatest barrier to success is the fear of failure.” The future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams. (Eleanor Roosevelt ) If you take responsibility for yourself you will develop a hunger to accomplish your dreams. (Les Brown ) "Leadership is the capacity to translate vision into reality." ( Warren Bennis) “Keep your dreams alive. Understand to achieve anything requires faith and belief in yourself, vision, hard work, determination, and dedication. Remember all things are possible for those who believe.” Gail Devers “Dream as if you'll live forever, live as if you'll die today.” “Brevity is the best recommendation of speech, whether in a senator or an orator” Marcus Tullius

Charlie Chaplin's 3 Heart touching Statements
Nothing is permanent in this world, not even our troubles. . . . ! The most wasted day in life, the day in which, we have not laughed. I like walking in the rain, becoz nobody can see my tears ******************************** "musalmaan ki haqeqat us k chand tootay phootay sajdon or shikasta aansuo main posheeda hai" JAB TUm muflasi say tung aa jao or rizq ka koi raasta na niklay tau sadqa day kr ALLAH say tijaarat karo sab say bari ibaadat gunah say bachna hai If you believe in what you are doing, then let nothing hold you up in your work. Much of the best work of the world has been done against seeming impossibilities. (Dale Carnegie)
