[famous_quotes] Hi groups.
Hi group members,
I have been a member of this group for the past 4 months and a real sleeper :-). Time to break the shell. I have collected sooooo many quotes from your emails that the time to break the shell has come.
I am enclosing quotes from one of my fav authors and a fav book.
Quotes from "The Alchemist " written by Paulo Coelho A magical story that is a must for everyone to read.
Everyday God gives us the sun, and also the moment in wich have the ability to change everything that makes us unhappy. Our magic moment helps us to change and send us off in search of our dreams.
---------------------------------
You can become blind by seeing each day as a similar one. Each day is a different one, each day brings a miracle of its own. It's just a matter of paying attention to this miracle.
---------------------------------
Everyone seems to have a clear idea of how other people should lead their lives, but none about his or her own.
---------------------------------
It's this. That a certain point in our lives, we lose control of what's happening to us, and our lives become controlled by fate. That's the world's greatest lie.
---------------------------------
People need not fear the unknown if they are capable of achieving what they need and want.
---------------------------------
Now that I have seen them, and now that I see how immense my possibilities are, I'm going to feel worse than I did before you arrived. Because I know the things I should be able to accomplish, and I don't want to do so.
---------------------------------
When I'm eating, that's all I think about. If I'm on the march, I just concentrate on marching. If I have to fight, it will be just as good a day to die as any other. Because I don't live in either my past or my future. I'm interested only in the present. If you can concentrate always on the present, you'll be a happy man.
---------------------------------
The secret is here in the present. If you pay attention to the present, you can improve upon it. And, if you improve on the present, what comes later will also be better. Forget about future, and live each day according to the teachings, confident that God loves his children. Each day, in itself brings with it an eternity.
---------------------------------
It's not what enters men's mouths that's evil, it's what comes out of their mouths that is.
---------------------------------
Love never keeps a man from pursuing his destiny. If he abandons that pursuit, it's because it wasn't ture love.
---------------------------------
One is loved because one is loved. No reason is needed for loving.
---------------------------------
There is only one thing that makes a dream impossible to achieve: the fear of failure.
---------------------------------
Usually the threat of death makes people a lot more aware of their lives.
---------------------------------
You have passed through the two hardest tests on the spiritual road: the patience to wait for the right moment and the courage not to be disappointed with what you encounter.
---------------------------------
Stop thinking all the time that you're in the way, that you're bothering the person next to you. If people don't like it, they can complain. And if they don't have courage to complain, that's their problem.
---------------------------------
If everyone there just lived their lives and let others do the same, God would be in every moment, in every grain of mustard, in the fragment of cloud that is there and then gone the following moment. God was there and yet people believed they still had to go on looking, because it seemed too simple to accept that life was an act of faith.
---------------------------------
...there were two things that prevent us from achieving our dreams: believing them to be impossible or seeing those dreams made possible by some sudden turn of the wheel of fortune, when you least exoected it. For at that moment, all our fears suddenly surface: the fear of setting off along a road heading who knows where, the fear of a life full of new challenges, the fear of losing for ever everything that is familiar.
---------------------------------
It is always far easier to have faith in your own goodness than to confront others and fight for your rights. It is always easier to hear an insult and not retaliate than have the courage to fight back against someone stronger than yourself; we can always say we're not hurt by the stones othrs throw at us, and it's only at night - when we're alone and our wife or our husband or our school friend is asleep - that we can silently grieve over our own cowardice.
---------------------------------
There are two kinds of idiots - those who don't take action because they have received a threat, and those who think they are taking action because they have issued a threat.
---------------------------------
You will see that, in order to do the important things in life, at times one must allow oneself to do nothing.
---------------------------------
A child can always teach an adult three things: to be happy for no reason, to always be busy with something, and to know how to demand with all his might that which he desires.
Love
Siva
