  • I don't know about that quote. I tried it out and discovered that making genuine attempts to know myself and therefore begin to be wise has made me narcissistic in some ways, and that I keep finding out things about myself that I don't know if I would have been better off not knowing. *shrug*

  • Oh...I have SO many favorite quotes...I love quotes by Mark Twain, Mae West, Yogi Berra, Helen Keller, e. e. cummings, Dr. Suess, Anne Frank, etc...

    Here's just one:
    "What we think, we become." Budda
    HUGS!!!

  • My all time favorite quote is, "Be here now".

  • Do not go where the path may lead. Go instead where there is no path, and leave
    a trail ~ Ralph Waldo Emerson

    That's in the header of my site.

  • "A word to the wise is infuriating." Hunter S Thompson

  • Osiyo,
    I have many quotes I really like, here are two of my favorites.
        Lord make me an instrument of Your peace. Where there is hatred, let me show love; where there is injury, pardon; where there is doubt, faith; where there is despair, hope; where there is darkness, light; and where there is sadness, joy.
        Divine Master, grant that I may not so much seek to be consoled as to console; to be understood as to understand; to be loved as to love; for it is in giving that we receive; it is in pardoning that we are pardoned; and it is in dying that we are born to eternal life. (St. Francis of Assisi)
        Grown men can learn from very little children, for the hearts of little children are pure. Therefore, the Great Spirit may show them things which older people miss.
    (Black Elk)
    May The Great Spirit’s Blessings Always Be with You!

  • and Aristotle was right, or close to it.

    “Travel is fatal to prejudice, bigotry, and narrow-mindedness, and many of our people need it sorely on these accounts. Broad, wholesome, charitable views of men and things cannot be acquired by vegetating in one little corner of the earth all one's lifetime.”  Mark Twain

  • Very nice quote.

  • That's a good one!
