I discovered at a very early age that if I talk long enough then I can make anything right or wrong. So, either I’m God, or truth is relative. And in either case: Booyah.
Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery, but today is a gift — that is why it is called the present.
It’s not how you start, it’s how you finish.
And it’s not about the things you’ve done, it’s what you’re doing now.
Everybody gets knocked down — how quick are you gonna get up?
c: No. We have to be strong.
What looks like a cloud to one person is a chance to sell umbrellas to the next.
The light of the truth can be harsh to those who’ve been in the dark.
If you don’t know how you got where you are, you probably weren’t watching where you were going.
If you call a tail a leg, how many legs does a dog have?
...>>Information is incapable of harm in and of itself.
Ideas are neither good nor bad, but merely as useful as what we do with them. Only actions can cause harm.
Pretty is in the eye of the beholder.
Beauty is in the soul. You can’t see it, but you know it when you feel it.
When you fall in love with someone, an 8.5 equals a perfect 10.
“It’s not what you look at that matters, it’s what you see.”
Holding your hands over your eyes does not mean that other people cannot see you.
The eyes see things that are, the mind sees things that are, that were and that that could be.
Chasing success is like trying to squeeze a handful of water. The tighter you squeeze, the less water you get. When you chase it, your life becomes the chase, and you become a victim of always wanting more.
“Wait a minute, Juanita. ...is it a virus, a drug, or a religion?”
Juanita shrugs. “What’s the difference?”
“Knowledge is limited. Imagination encircles the world.”
...>>“Idleness … does not consist in doing nothing, but in doing a great deal not recognized in the dogmatic formularies of the ruling class.”
You have to start out learning to believe the little lies.
“So we can believe the big ones?”
Yes. Justice. Mercy. Duty. That sort of thing.
“They’re not the same at all!”
“Boredom is the feeling that everything is a waste of time; serenity, that nothing is.”
Sometimes, I feel discriminated against, but it does not make me angry. It merely astonishes me. How can anybody deny themselves the pleasure of my company? It’s beyond me.
“To treat your facts with imagination is one thing, but to imagine your facts is another.”
