Words worth keeping

A man who dares to waste one hour of time has not discovered the value of life.

I wonder how many people don't get the one they want, but end up with the one they're supposed to be with.

The important thing to you is not how many years in your life, but how much life in your years!

All parents damage their children. It cannot be helped. Youth, like pristine glass, absorbs the prints of its handlers. Some parents smudge, others crack, a few shatter childhoods completely into jagged little pieces, beyond repair.

My concern is not whether God is on our side; my greatest concern is to be on God's side, for God is always right.

Remember, darkness does not always equate to evil, just as light does not always bring good.

I meant what I said and I said what I meant. An elephant's faithful one-hundred percent!

To shine your brightest light is to be who you truly are.

What do we live for, if it is not to make life less difficult for each other?

When I was about eight, I decided that the most wonderful thing, next to a human being, was a book.

Be thankful for everything that happens in your life; it’s all an experience.

The reason it hurts so much to separate is because our souls are connected. Maybe they always have been and will be. Maybe we've lived a thousand lives before this one and in each of them we've found each other. And maybe each time, we've been forced apart for the same reasons. That means that this goodbye is both a goodbye for the past ten thousand years and a prelude to what will come.

Tears are words that need to be written.

I read once that the ancient Egyptians had fifty words for sand & the Eskimos had a hundred words for snow. I wish I had a thousand words for love, but all that comes to mind is the way you move against me while you sleep & there are no words for that.

Sometimes you have to lose all you have to find out who you truly are.
