I'm starting to get obsessed with these things. Our English teacher had us get a notebook to fill of these.ADD SOME OF YOUR OWN!!!
"You gather your strength, courage, and confidence by every experience in which you really stop to look fear in the face. You must do the thing which you think you cannot do." Eleanor Roosevelt
"States are not moral agents, people are, and can impose moral standards on powerful institutions." Noam Chomsky
"It's better to be pissed off than pissed on." Richard Browner
"The culture we have does not make people feel good about themselves. We're teaching the wrong things. And you have to be strong enough to say if the culture doesnt work, dont buy it." Morrie Schartz--"Tuesdays with Morrie"
"Sometimes you cannot believe what you see, you have to believe what you feel. And if you are ever going to have other people trust you, you must feel that you can trust them too--even when you're in the darl. Even when you're falling." Morrie Scwartz
"You cannot make yourself feel something you do not feel, but you can make yourself do right in spite of your feelings." Pearl S. Buck
Morrie Scwartz also talks about how our culture doesnt focus on dying and true life. We are so wrapped up in materialistic things like paying the mortgage and worrying about other things. We have to stop a for awhile and think, "Is this all I want? Is this all? Am I missing something? And am I who I really want to be?"
