If you take care of the small things, the big things take care of themselves. You can gain more control over your life by paying closer attention to the little things.
Not knowing when the dawn will come, I open every door.
Find ecstasy in life the mere sense of living is joy enough.
If I can stop one heart from breaking, If I can ease one pain, Then my life will not have been in vain.
A Shade upon the mind there passesAs when on NoonA Cloud the mighty Sun encloses.
A word is dead when it is said, some say. I say it just begins to live that day.
Faith--is the Pierless Bridge Supporting what We see Unto the Scene that We do not.
Hope is the thing with feathers -- that perches in the soul -- and sings the tune without words -- and never stops, at all.
I dwell in possibility.
I imagine, therefore I belong and am free.
Love, with very young people, is a heartless business. We drink at that age from thirst, or to get drunk it is only later in life that we occupy ourselves with the individuality of our wine.
My friends are my estate. Forgive me then the avarice to hoard them
Parting is all we know of heaven and all we need of hell.
That it will never come again is what makes life sweet.
The soul should always stand ajar, ready to welcome the ecstatic experience.
they say that God is everywhere, and yet we always think of him as somewhat of a recluse.
To live is so startling it leaves little time for anything else.
