some quotes *thanks to dr.Google* heheh

Funny ones..

I have heard there are troubles of more than one kind.
Some come from ahead and some come from behind.
But I've bought a big bat.  I'm all ready you see.
Now my troubles are going to have troubles with me!
~Dr. Seuss

When life gives you lemons, please, just don't squirt them in other people's eyes.  ~J. Andrew Helt

Something to really think about

If you're in a bad situation, don't worry it'll change.  If you're in a good situation, don't worry it'll change.  ~John A. Simone, Sr.

As long as you keep getting born, it's alright to die some times.  ~Orson Scott Card

God gave burdens, also shoulders.  ~Yiddish Proverb

I ask not for a lighter burden, but for broader shoulders.  ~Jewish Proverb

Sometimes the littlest things in life are the hardest to take.  You can sit on a mountain more comfortably than on a tack.  ~Author Unknown

Birds sing after a storm; why shouldn't people feel as free to delight in whatever remains to them?  ~Rose F. Kennedy

Sad but true..


There are some defeats more triumphant than victories.  ~Michel de Montaigne

Damaged people are dangerous.  They know they can survive.  ~Josephine Hart

The turning point in the process of growing up is when you discover the core of strength within you that survives all hurt.  ~Max Lerner, The Unfinished Country, 1950

The trouble with most of us is that we would rather be ruined by praise than saved by criticism.  ~Norman Vincent Peale

When suffering comes, we yearn for some sign from God, forgetting we have just had one.  ~Mignon McLaughlin, The Neurotic's Notebook, 1960

Having is not so pleasing a thing as wanting, it may not be logical but it is often true.  ~Mr. Spock, Star Trek


Life


There's a bit of magic in everything, and some loss to even things out.  ~Lou Reed, "Magic and Loss"

Smooth seas do not make skillful sailors.  ~African Proverb

He who has a why to live can bear almost any how.  ~Friedrich Nietzsche

The gem cannot be polished without friction nor man without trials.  ~Confucius

There is something beautiful about all scars of whatever nature.  A scar means the hurt is over, the wound is closed and healed, done with.  ~Harry Crews

When you're feeling your worst, that's when you get to know yourself the best.  ~Leslie Grossman


p/s: I underlined the ones which appeal to me the most, although I don't fully agree with Harry Crews (the last underlined). Scars would always be there for us to see it, don't they? maybe the wound is closed and healed, but it will always be there right?
