Life Is A Fairy Tale

Everyone's life is a fairy tale written by God's finger.

Hans Christian Andersen

A Waste Of Time

Boredom is the feeling that everything is a waste of time;
serenity is when nothing is.

Thomas Szasz

If We Opened Our Minds

If we opened our minds to enjoyment,
we might find tranquil pleasures spread about us on every side.
We might live with the angels that visit us on every sunbeam,
and sit with the fairies who wait on every flower.

Samuel Smiles

Let Us Not Get So Busy

Let us not get so busy or live so fast that we can't
listen to the music of the meadow,
or the symphony that glorifies the forest.

Some things in the world are far more important than wealth;
one of them is the ability to enjoy the simple things.

Dale Carnegie

Be Thou The Rainbow

Be thou the rainbow in the storms of life.
That evening beam that smiles the clouds away,
and tints tomorrow with prophetic ray.

Lord Byron

Let Your Mind Start A Journey

Let your mind start a journey through a strange new world.
Leave all thoughts of the world you knew before.
Let your soul take you where you long to be......
Close your eyes and let your spirit soar,
and you will live as you have never lived before.

Erich Fromm

The Fables Of Legend

I would rather believe all the Fables in Legend,
and the Talmud, and the Alcoran,
than to believe that this Universal framework
is without a Mind.

Francis Bacon

Ask Yourself

Ask yourself whether the dream of Heaven and
Greatness should be waiting for us in our graves,
or whether it should be ours here and now and on this Earth.

Ayn Rand

Success Is Not A Place

Success is not a place at which one arrives,
but rather the spirit with which one
undertakes and continues the journey.

Alex Noble

When A Man Kills A Tiger

When a man wants to murder a tiger he calls it sport;
when a tiger wants to murder him he calls it ferocity.

George Bernard Shaw

I Am Not Afraid Of Tomorrow

I am not afraid of tomorrow, for I have seen yesterday and I love today.

William Allen White

The Thing With Magic

That's the thing with magic.
You've got to know it's still here,
all around us, or is it just invisible to you?

Charles de Lint

That Face Is Beautiful

To a true artist only that face is beautiful which,
quite apart from its exterior,
shines with the truth within the soul.

Mahatma Gandhi

The Bird Of Paradise

The Bird Of Paradise alights upon the hand that does not grasp.

John Berry

Music Expresses

Music expresses that which cannot be put into words
and cannot remain silent.

Victor Hugo

What Each Must Seek In Life

What each must seek in his life never was on land or sea.
It is something out of his own unique potentiality for experience,
something that never has been and never could have been experienced by anyone else.

Joseph Campbell

Without Mysteries

Without mysteries, life would be very dull indeed.
What would be left to strive for if everything were known?

Charles de Lint

What Hermits Realize

But I'll tell you what hermits realize.
If you go off into a far, far forest and get very quiet,
you'll come to understand that you're connected with everything.

Alan Watts
