    By: Sigurd F. Olson

    Life Quotes
  • "Everyday epiphanies encourage us to cherish everything. Today a new sun has risen. Everything lives. Everything can speak to your soul passionately if you will be still enough to listen.

    By: Sarah Ban Breathnach

    Life Quotes
  • "Have patience with everything in your heart and try to love the questions themselves as if they were locked rooms or books written in a very foreign language. Don't search for the answers, which could not be given to you now, because you would not be able to live them. And the point is, to live everything. Live the question now. Perhaps then, someday far in the future, you will gradually, without even noticing it, live your way into the answer."
    By: Rainer Maria Rilke Letters to a Young Poet
    Life Quotes

There are always going to be people who disagree with you, people who do things differently, and things that don't work out. If you fight against this principle of life, you'll spend most of your life fighting battles."
    By: R. Carlson, Ph.D.
