Desiderata desired things Max Ehrmann (1872 to 1945), Go placidly amid the noise and the haste, and remember what peace there may be in silence. As far as possible, without surrender, be on good terms with all persons. Speak your truth quietly and clearly; and listen to others, even to the dull and the ignorant; they too have their story. Avoid loud and aggressive persons; they are vexatious to the spirit. If you compare yourself with others, you may become vain or bitter, for always there will be greater and lesser persons than yourself. Enjoy your achievements as well as your plans. Keep interested in your own career, however humble; it is a real possession in the changing fortunes of time. Exercise caution in your business affairs, for the world is full of trickery. But let this not blind you to what virtue there is; many persons strive for high ideals, and everywhere life is full of heroism. Be yourself. Especially do not feign affection. Neither be cynical about love, for in the face of all aridity and disenchantment, it is as perennial as the grass. Take kindly the counsel of the years, gracefully surrendering the things of youth. Nurture strength of spirit to shield you in sudden misfortune. But do not distress yourself with dark imaginings. Many fears are born of fatigue and loneliness. Beyond a wholesome discipline, be gentle with yourself. You are a child of the universe no less than the trees and the stars; you have a right to be here. And whether or not it is clear to you, no doubt the universe is unfolding as it should. Therefore be at peace with God, whatever you conceive Him to be. And whatever your labors and aspirations, in the noisy confusion of life, keep peace in your soul. With all its sham, drudgery, and broken dreams, it is still a beautiful world. Be cheerful. Strive to be happy.

Welcome Pussy nice quotation each one has a strong meaning thank you for contributing,I know those who like to read quotations will love it. from Coimbatore hi once upon a time i studied in Coimbatore in Fatima convent, so happy to have you here,
Don't Quit When things go wrong, as they sometimes will When the road you're trudging seems all uphill When the funds are low and the debts are high And you want to smile, but you have to sigh When care is pressing you down a bit Rest if you must, but don't you quit. Life is queer with its twists and turns As every one of us sometimes learns And many a fellow turns about When he might have won, had he stuck it out. Don't give up though the pace seems slow You may succeed with another blow. Often the goal is nearer than It seems to a faint and faltering man; Often the struggler has given up When he might have captured the victor's cup; And he learned too late when the night came down How close he was to the golden crown. Success is failure turned inside out The silver tint of the clouds of doubt And you never can tell how close you are It may be near when it seems afar; So stick to the fight when you're hardest hit It's when things seem worst that you mustn't quit.

The Optimists Creed I Promise Myself To be so strong that nothing can disturb my peace of mind. To talk health, happiness, and prosperity to every person I meet. To make all my friends feel that there is something worthwhile in them. To look at the sunny side of everything, and make my optimism come true. To think only of the best, to work only for the best and to expect only the best. To be just as enthusiastic about the success of others as I am about my own. To forget the mistakes of the past and press on to the greater achievements of the future. To wear a cheerful expression at all times and give a smile to every living creature I meet. To give so much time to improving myself that I have no time to criticize others. To be too large for worry, too noble for anger, too strong for fear, and too happy to permit the presence of trouble. To think well of myself and to proclaim this fact to the world, not in loud words, but in great deeds. To live in the faith that the whole world is on my side, so long as I am true to the best that is in me. ________________________________________
Life Purpose Quote Purpose Life isn't about finding yourself. Life is about creating yourself. - George Bernard Shaw ________________________________________ All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to us. - J The Purpose of Life? To totally immerse yourself in situations that interest you and to explore the inner experiences – the thoughts, feelings, learnings, and growth – that result – ________________________________________ Every decision you make - every decision - is not a decision about what to do. It's a decision about Who You Are. When you see this, when you understand it, everything changes. You begin to see life in a new way. All events, occurrences, and situations turn into opportunities to do what you came here to do. - Neale Donald Walsch ________________________________________ To live is to choose. But to choose, you must know who you are and what you stand for, where you want to go, and why you want to get there…. - Kofi Annan ________________________________________ Happiness is not something ready made.

Thepaths are not to be found, but made, and the activity of makingthem, changes both the maker and the destination. - Deborah James, Business Consultant ________________________________________ As soon as you trust yourself, you will know how to live - Garth Henrichs ________________________________________ Continuous effort - not strength or intelligence - is the key tounlocking our potential. - Winston Churchill
SOME OLDEN DAYS QUOTATIONS When i did well, I heard it never;when i did ill, i heard it ever . Fraud is often the mother of gain but gain is not always the son of fraud. Relations and the sun the further away the better. Pinch yourself and you know how others feel. It is not easy to steal when the landlord is the thief. Sins and debts are always are always more than we think them to be. A man loves his sweetheart the most, his wife the best, but his mother the most.
To a friends house, the road is never long. There is no beast that does not roar in its den. The sight of a horse make a traveler lame. A good neighbor doubles the value of a house. He needs a long candle who awaits the death of another, A good proverb does not strike one in the brows, but full in the eyes. One must draw back in order to leap better. Habit is first cobwebs, then cables.
