QUOTES FOR LIFE

This is a collection of inspiring words by many a great person. Pondering over them can open our eyes to a host of truths. Hope they inspire you also in some way.

• Learn something-new everyday – keep your eyes, your ears and most important of all: your mind open at all times.

• Live with vigour and enthusiasm. Live every day as if it were the first day you have ever seen and the last day you were ever going to see.

• If you ever find happiness by hunting for it, you will find it as the woman found her lost spectacles, safe and sound on her own nose all the time.

• The memories that give us the greatest satisfaction are those of when we served others rather than when others served us.

•  Worry is like a microscope. It makes every little misery look huge.

• There is no dignity quite so impressive as living within your means.

• There is no security on this earth, there is only opportunity.

• Obstacles are those frightful things that you see when you shift your eyes from the goal.

• You do not get ulcers from what you eat, you get ulcers from the worry that is eating you.

• The most relaxing and recreating forces are a healthy religion, sleep, music and laughter. Have faith in God – learn to sleep well – love good music – see the funny side of life; and health and happiness will be yours.

• When you can’t handle events, let events handle themselves.

• God , please grant me

The ability to accept the things I cannot change
The courage to change the things I can
And the wisdom to know the difference

• Hope for the best, but prepare for the worst.

• Blessed is he, who expects nothing, for he shall never be disappointed.

• Never cry for something that can’t cry for you.

• Sorrow looks back

Worry looks around
Faith looks up.

• We act as though comfort and luxury were the chief requirements in life, but actually, all that we need to make us really happy is just something to be enthusiastic about.

• When we look at what we have and compare with what we want, we shall be unhappy.

But when we think of what we deserve and then think of what we have, we shall thank God.

• The difficulties of life are meant to make us better, not bitter.

• All happy people are grateful

Ungrateful people cannot be happy.
We tend to think that people complain because they are unhappy.
But actually, people become unhappy because they complain.

•  May you have enough happiness to make you sweet,

Enough trials to make you strong,
Enough sorrow to keep you human,
Enough hope to make you happy
And enough money to buy gifts.

•  It’s nice to be important, but its more important to be nice.

•  Temper is what gets most of us into trouble. Pride is what keeps us there.

•  Happiness is a journey, not a destination.
