These are the quotes speaking to me tonight:
Your task is not to seek for love, but merely to seek and
find all the barriers within yourself that you have built against it. What you
seek is seeking you. (Rumi)
If you limit yourself only to what seems possible or
reasonable, you disconnect yourself from what you truly want, and all that is
left is compromise. (Anais Nin)
You have to learn to get up from the table when love is no
longer being served. (Nina Simone)
Never give in. Never give in. Never, never, never, never—in
nothing, great or small, large or petty—never give in, except to convictions of
honour and good sense. Never yield to force. Never yield to the apparently overwhelming
might of the enemy. (Winston Churchill)
So many of our dreams at first seem impossible, then they
seem improbable, and then, when we summon the will, they soon become
inevitable. (Christopher Reeve)
Even though you may want to move forward in your life, you
may have one foot on the brakes. In order to be free, we must learn how to let
go. Release the hurt. Release the fear. Refuse
to entertain your old pain. The energy it takes to hang onto the past is
holding you back from a new life. What is it you would let go of today? (Mary Manin Morrissey)
We may encounter many defeats but we must not be defeated. (Maya
Angelou)
Life doesn't get better, you get better. (Unknown)
It is clear that we are just an advanced breed of primates
on a minor planet orbiting around a very average star, in the outer suburb of
one among a hundred billion galaxies. BUT, ever since the dawn of civilization
people have craved for an understanding of the underlying order of the world.
There ought to be something very special about the boundary conditions of the
universe. And what can be more special than that there is no boundary? And
there should be no boundary to human endeavour. We are all different. However
bad life may seem, there is always something you can do, and succeed at. While
there is life, there is hope. (Stephen Hawking)
