| "Cultivate
gratitude. Carve out an hour a day for solitude. Begin and end the day with prayer, meditation, reflection. Keep it simple. Keep your house picked up. Don't overschedule. Strive for realistic deadlines. Never make a promise you can't keep. Allow an extra half hour for everything you do. Create quiet surroundings at home and at work. Go to bed at nine o'clock twice a week. Always carry something interesting to read. Breathe--deeply and often. Move--walk, dance, run, find a sport you enjoy. Drink pure spring water. Lots of it. Eat only when hungry. If it's not delicious, don't eat it." ~Sarah Ban Breathmach~ |

"The dogmas of the quiet past are inadequate to the stormy present. The occasion is piled high with difficulty, and we must rise with the occasion. As our case is new, so we must think anew and act anew."
"Whenever I hear anyone arguing for slavery, I feel a strong impulse to see it tried on him personally."

not lightly of good, saying, "It will not come to me." Drop

little by little, fills himself with good. ~Buddha |

"Do
not believe anything because it is said
by an authority, or if it is said to come from angels, or from Gods,
or from an inspired source.
Believe it only if you have explored it in your own heart and mind and body and found it to be true. Work out your own path, through diligence." ~Buddha |

doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed people can change
the world. Indeed, it is the only thing that ever has."

"Give a woman a fish, and
she will feed her family first and go hungry herself. Teach a woman to fish, and she will feed her family until the lake becomes polluted or they take away her fishing rights. Give women the resources and access to capital, and they will buy the lake, feed their families, keep the lake environmentally clean, and have something to pass on for generations to come." ~Author Unknown |
