"I can alter my life by altering..." - Quote by Henry David Thoreau

“We can conceive of nothing more fair than something which we have experienced.”

“In human intercourse the tragedy begins, not when there is misunderstanding about words, but when silence is not understood.”

“I must conclude that Conscience, if that be the name of it, was not given us for no purpose, or for a hindrance. However flattering order and expediency may look, it is but the repose of a lethargy, and we will choose rather to be awake, though it be stormy, and maintain ourselves on this earth, and in this life, as we may, without signing our death-warrant. Let us see if we cannot stay here, where He has put us, on his own conditions. Does not his law reach as far as his light? The expedients of the nations clash with one another: only the absolutely right is expedient for all.”

“Attitude is a paintbrush. It colors everything!”

“Life is ten percent what happens to you and ninety percent how you respond to it.”

“It's better to be an optimist who is sometimes wrong than a pessimist who is always right”

“My life is a struggle.”

“You cannot have a happy ending to a miserable journey.”

“Life is a great and wondrous mystery, and the only thing we know that we have for sure is what is right here right now. Don't miss it.”
