Great quotes, everyone! I have many, the two I'm working with lately are
"I am not what has happened to me. I am what I choose to become" - Carl Gustav Jung, psychologist
and
"...said the Queen. "...Why, sometimes I've believed as many as six impossible things before breakfast." Lewis Carroll, Alice In Wonderland

Hi there,His last name apparently went down to the next line - Dr. Jung, or "Uncle Carl" as I fondly refer to him, was one of the best psychologists that ever blessed this earth. His brand of therapy makes him more of a healer than a psychologist and I'd recommend reading any of his books over visiting some of the therapists out there today. He has many inspiring and healing quotes.
He is best known for his groundbreaking work incorporating dream interpretation into therapy. He initially worked with Freud but continued the work on his own when he took issue with Uncle Siggy connecting everything to $ex. Both of them were pioneers in this area and Freud's work should not be discounted. He still had some valuable insight into the world of the unconscious.
Jung also said that, "The dreamer is the only true interpreter of the dream."

There are so many, but, this one is nice to remember when writing:
"People will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel." --Maya Angelou

mine would be, "to forgive is divine, but vengeance is sweeter." this was from the title Vengeance is not ours, its Gods. it really is a fact to most of us. I know most of you guys can relate about this.

"A democracy that will reduce a little freedom to increase a little security will deserve neither and lose both."
One of the founding fathers said it and something i think is particularly relevant at the moment.

no, i just think back then politics was based on real issues not corruption, power and fear.

the more we see love and and virtue and holiness outside

He slept beneath the moon
he basked beneath the sun
he lived a life of going to do
and tied with nothing done.

Existence alone is not success! it is a lot more.
Do more than exist-live
Do more than touch-feel
Do more than look-observe
Do more than read-absorb
Do more than hear-listen
Do more than listen-understand.
by john H.rhodes.
