Angel's Craft
"QUOTES
& HUMOUR FOR WOMEN"
"A
laugh is a terrible weapon."
Kate
O'Brien
"Love
has nothing to do with what you are expecting to get -- only with what you are
expecting to give -- which is everything."
Katharine
Hepburn
"If
you give your life as a wholehearted response to love, then love will
wholeheartedly respond to you."
Marianne
Williamson
"Love
is or it ain't. Thin love ain't love at
all."
Toni
Morrison
"I
am suspicious of guilt in myself and other people: it is usually a way of not
thinking, or of announcing one's own fine sensibilities the better to be rid of
them fast."
Lillian
Hellman
"It's
like magic. When you live by yourself,
all your annoying habits are gone!"
Merrill
Markoe
"Why
always, 'not yet?' Do flowers in spring
say, 'not yet?'"
Norman
Douglas
"Too
many of us are hung up on what we don't have, can't have, or won't ever
have. We spend too much energy being
down, when we could use that same energy - if not less of it - doing, or at
least trying to do, some of the things we really want to do."
Terry
McMillan
"Live
in the past, but don't remember too much."
Roger
Rosenblatt
"The
follies a man regrets most in his life are those which he didn't commit when he
had the opportunity."
Helen
Rowland
Never
assume that you "know" human nature: "Man is always worse than
most people suspect, but also generally better than most people dream."
Reinhold
Niebuhr
"I
loathe the expression 'What makes him tick' . . . A person not only ticks, he
also chimes and strikes the hour, falls and breaks and has to be put together
again, and sometimes stops like an electric clock in a thunderstorm."
James
Thurber
"You
are all you will ever have for certain."
June
Havoc
"Sedentary
people are apt to have sluggish minds. A sluggish mind is apt to be reflected
in flabbiness of body and in a dullness of expression that invites no interest
and gets none."
Rose
Kennedy
"Don't
take anyone else's definition of success as your own. (This is easier said than done.)"
Jacqueline
Briskin
"The
need for change bulldozed a road down the center of my mind."
Maya
Angelou
"Changes
are not only possible and predictable, but to deny them is to be an accomplice
to one's own necessary vegetation."
Gail
Sheehy
"You
must change in order to survive."
Pearl
Bailey
"It
never pays to deal with the flyweights of the world. They take far too much pleasure in thwarting you at every
turn."
Sue
Grafton
"Learn
to depend upon yourself by doing things in accordance with your own way of
thinking."
Grenville
Kleiser
"Though
I am always in haste, I am never in a hurry."
John
Wesley
“Friends
are angels who lift us to our feet when our wings have trouble remembering how
to fly.”
Anon.
"It
isn't until you come to a spiritual understanding of who you are – not
necessarily a religious feeling, but deep down, the spirit within—that you can
begin to take control."
Oprah
Winfrey
"It
is neither wealth nor splendor, but tranquility and occupation, which give
happiness."
Thomas
Jefferson
“Never
tell a woman that you didn't realize she was pregnant unless you're certain
that she is.”
Dave
Barry
“If
you judge people, you have no time to love them”
Mother
Teresa
“It
takes a minute to have a crush on someone, an hour to like someone and a day to
love someone - but it takes a lifetime to forget someone.”
Anon.
