I have two to start with:

"Every day is an opportunity to make a new happy ending." ~ Anonymous

"Worring does not empty tomorrow of its troubles. It empties today of its strength." ~ unknown ~ Mary Englebright?

I like these two.................

Do unto others as YOU would have them do unto you.

LOVE that is cleansed with TEARS will eternally remain PURE & BEAUTIFUL.

LoVe,

Beautiful Rhapsody! Thanks!

this is one of my faves, k its not a quote per se but it does have some truths to it regarding life in general, enjoy.

Monty pythons always look on the bright side of life

Cheer up, Brian. You know what they say.
Some things in life are bad,
They can really make you mad.
Other things just make you swear and curse.
When you're chewing on life's gristle,
Don't grumble, give a whistle!
And this'll help things turn out for the best...
And..
...always look on the bright side of life!
(whistle)

Always look on the bright side of life...
If life seems jolly rotten,
There's something you've forgotten!
And that's to laugh and smile and dance and sing,

When you're feeling in the dumps,
Don't be silly chumps,
Just purse your lips and whistle -- that's the thing!
And... always look on the bright side of life...

(whistle)
Come on!

(other start to join in)
Always look on the bright side of life...
(whistle)

For life is quite absurd,
And death's the final word.
You must always face the curtain with a bow!
Forget about your sin -- give the audience a grin,
Enjoy it -- it's the last chance anyhow!

So always look on the bright side of death!
Just before you draw your terminal breath.
Life's a piece of sh.it,
When you look at it.

Life's a laugh and death's a joke, it's true,
You'll see it's all a show,
Keep 'em laughing as you go.
Just remember that the last laugh is on you!

And always look on the bright side of life
(whistle)
Always look on the bright side of life

LIFE is like a CAREER. The more emphasis you put into life, the more justified you will be in LIFE.

Thanks for a great thread.

'the unexamined life is not worth living'

but to counter-balance that:

'sensible men know when to stop peeling their onions'

I forget...

--- A child becomes an adult when he realizes that he has a right not only to be right but also to be wrong---
Thomas Szasz

this one is to help people like me not feel so bad when they are confused about things:
---if confusion is the first step to knowledge, I must be a genius---

This is a bit more humurous... my own qoute... or philosophy of life if you want...

"All I need is a gun and an insanity plea... I already got one of the two..." And then people usually ask which one and I reply... "Do you see me shooting someone?"

'wisest is he who knows he does not know'

(Socrates again)

This is only a saying I say quite often actually....but it seems to fit me well lately....

"I'm lost. I've gone to look for myself. If I should return before I get back, please ask me to wait!"

"Poor is the man whose pleasures depend on the permission of another."

-Madonna

> "Being poor should be painful, lest there be no incentive to leave it behind."

ouch!

the underlying assumption being that poor people need to be more motivated to leave their poverty behind (and hence poverty is about laziness).
