Guiding Quotes: When More Is Simply Not Enough
For inspiration to complete last week's Mission Possible,
Sherry and Diane have collected the following guiding quotes for your contemplation.
FAITH
Faith has to do with things that are not seen,
and hope with things that are not in hand.
Saint Thomas Acquinas
DOUBT
Our doubts are traitors and make us lose the good we oft might win
by fearing to attempt.
William Shakespeare
ACTION
In the arena of human life the honors and rewards fall to those
who show their good qualities in action.
Aristotle
FIRST THINGS FIRST
I can honestly say that I was never affected by the question of
the success of an undertaking. If I felt it was the right thing to do,
I was for it regardless of the possible outcome.
Golda Meir (Prime Minister of Israel, 1969-74)
EXPLORE
Twenty years from now
you will be more disappointed
by the things that you didn't do
than by the ones you did do.
So throw off the bowlines.
Sail away from the safe harbor.
Catch the trade winds in your sails.
Explore. Dream. Discover.
Mark Twain
NO ACCIDENT
It is not by accident that the happiest people are those who make
a conscious effort to live useful lives. Their happiness, of course,
is not a shallow exhilaration where life is one continuos intoxicating
party. Rather, their happiness is a deep sense of inner peace
that comes when they believe their lives have meaning and that they
are making a difference for good in the world.
Ernest Fitzgerald
CONVICTIONS
Convictions without character
are quickly dissolved
into mere good intentions.
William L. Kynes
HAPPINESS
Happiness is not a destination.
It is a method of life.
Burton Hills
