I went to the woods because I wished to live deliberately and not, when I came to die, discover that I had not lived.
H.D.Thoreau
Although the most acute judges of the witches and even the witches themselves, were convinced of the guilt of witchery, the guilt nevertheless was non-existent. It is thus with all guilt.

At bottom every man knows well enough that he is a unique being, only once on this earth; and by no extraordinary chance will such a marvellously picturesque piece of diversity in unity as he is, ever be put together a second time.

Hi raydene! Such wonderful quotes. I will surely check on the link that you have shared. I have always lived with the Latin quote "Carpe Diem" and so does my husband. He is the one who have lived by it since he was a young student and I just adopted it. hehe.. Thank you for sharing all those wonderful quotes and thank you too for all the jokes you have sent me through e-mail. You always make me smile my friend! Thank you very much for your friendship! Really appreciate it. Take care and have a nice day always! :)

The ones you mention are very good and there are tons more that I love but I'd have to say my favorite is the Golden Rule - "Do unto others as you would have them do unto you". We have never-ending debates about religion with some people claiming you can't know right from wrong or have any morals without being religious but I think that simple quote is something everyone can live by regardless of their faith or lack thereof.

I like "This season will also change" because when I'm down I know that it won't last forever and that time changes everything anyway.
I also like, "We are all in the gutter, but some of us are looking at the stars." - Oscar Wilde.
