"The tree the tempest with a crash..." - Quote by Robert Frost

“A champion of the workingman has never been known to die of overwork.”

“Poets need not go to Niagara to write about the force of falling water.”

“I wonder about the trees.Why do we wish to bearForever the noise of theseMore than another noiseSo close to our dwelling place?”

“If Colin Powell was president, I'd follow him. I wanna get into politics. That's the way for us to overcome a lot of our obstacles.”

“Believe me that in every big thing or achievement there are always obstacles-big or small- and the reaction one shows to such obstacles is what counts, not the obstacle itself.”

“Many people see themselves as a problem that needs to be solved. They also habitually see the present moment as an obstacle that they need to overcome or get away from. With awareness, an inner sense of spaciousness arises that enables you to look at your own mind, which is to say the human mind, with a certain degree of detachment.”

“It's an epitome of life. The first half of it consists of the capacity to enjoy without the chance; the last half consists of the chance without the capacity.”

“Don't try to add more years to your life. Better add more life to your years.”

“Love life. Engage in it. Give it all you've got. Love it with a passion because life truly does give back, many times over, what you put into it.”
