Here’s my favorite quote of all time:
“Keep away from people who try to belittle your ambitions. Small people always do that, but the really great make you feel that you, too, can become great.” – Mark Twain
Mark Twain owns pretty much all the best quotes. He is both funny and pithy. Lately, a lot of the quotes I love come from Rumi. Here are some other favorites on my list:
“Sometimes the people around you won’t understand your journey. They don’t need to, it’s not for them.”
“You are not a drop in the ocean. You are the entire ocean.” – Rumi
“Just because someone doesn’t love you the way you want them to, doesn’t mean they don’t love you with everything they have.”
“Allow beauty to shatter you regularly. The loveliest people are the ones who have been burnt and broken and torn at the seams, yet still send their open hearts into the world to mend with love again, and again, and again. You must allow yourself to feel your life while you’re in it.” – Victoria Erickson
“To live is the rarest thing in the world. Most people exist, that is all.” – Oscar Wilde
“You are confined only by the walls you built yourself.”
“The price of anything is the amount of life you exchange for it.” -Thoreau
“Whether you think you can, or you think you can’t, you are right.” -Henry Ford
And in honor of the word I plan to have for 2016:
“Whatever the present moment contains, accept it as if you had chosen it.” – Eckhart Tolle
